Laurel Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Allowance Optional Claiming
SCABIOSA (8) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 4 lengths away in third over 1106m at Delaware Park (Dirt). Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. GYPSY LULLABY (2) is a talented filly who was well held last time out in the tougher race won by Hidden Overture over 1710m at this track, beaten 10 lengths into eighth. Is going well this campaign, recording a win and three minor placings from six starts. Bold showing expected. MAYBE GOLD (6) lines up on the back of a 6 length fifth over 1710m at this track. Must be respected. ALMAS GONE GAMBLIN (4) was in contention on the corner and finished third last start over 1408m at Laurel (Dirt), beaten 6 lengths. Will be rock-hard fit. Placed to advantage so expect another bold run. Something for the Multiples: LAFLORDELACANELA (13)
