Laurel Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Ratings Optional Claiming
SAM STORMY (9) settled well back when 6 lengths from the winner in tenth over 1609m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his seventh at Delaware Park Turf the run before. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. MAYDAY MALONE (4) returns from a spell of four months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when ninth over 1710m at Colonial Downs Turf (Turf). Comes here with definite claims. PATRICK'S PROMISE (10) is a distance specialist who finished ninth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1609m at Meadowlands, beaten 3 lengths. Has the class to figure prominently. HYTECK PRINCE (12) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1609m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects.

Comes off a 40 day let-up. Most recently raced on the pace when 2nd of 9 at Delaware Park Turf on September 19 over 1710m, 3 len behind Ironsides with 55kg at $3.20. Before that 2nd of 7 at Colonial Downs Inner Turf on August 15 over 1609m, 1.0 len behind Sing Sing with 56kg at $4. Can't see him troubling these.
