Laurel Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming
BALTIC (6) is going well this time in work, including a last start win over 1006m at Delaware Park Turf (Turf) to bring up two wins from three runs in the campaign. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Among the leading chances. GOLDEN DESCENT (5) was in the money over this journey two back then failed at the longer trip last time when fifth at Laurel (Dirt). Finds a more suitable contest and is a leading player. GIMME TWO SHOTS (11) went forward and gave a great sight when second over 1106m at this track (Dirt) last time out. Jose E Vargas who has two wins when partnering stays on. One of the contenders. WHENEVERUREMEMBER (12) finished seventh over 1609m at Colonial Downs Inner Turf (Turf) at his most recent appearance on August 28. Can make his presence felt.

Comes here off a 34-day let-up. Most recently ran last in a small field at Laurel on October 3 over 1408m, 20 len behind Marcan Love with 57kg at $6.10. The race before that rolled along in front before being edged out 3rd of 7 at this track on September 11 over 1106m, 1.1 len behind Marvelous Mo with 57kg at $8.70. Can make amends.

Returns from a 42-day let-up. Last start sat behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 12 at Delaware Park Turf on September 25 over 1673m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Arthur's Court carrying 54kg at $9.50. The start before that won by 1.0 len at Delaware Park Turf on August 20 over 1006m defeating My Captain with 53.5kg at $2.90. Likely to play a big role.

Recent form sound. Most recently 2nd in a small field at this track on October 17 over 1106m, 1.5 len behind Borletti with 54.5kg at $4.10. The start before that won by 2.5 len at this track on October 2 over 1106m defeating Hoppetosse with 56kg at $4.70. Well placed. Should prove hard to beat.
