Laurel Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Special Weight
EMPRESS WARRIOR (8) was well supported on debut last start and turned in a strong effort to finish third over 1207m at Laurel (Dirt). Likely improver who is expected to be in the finish. TURNS TO GOLD (9) will find this a little easier than her second on debut four weeks ago, beaten 2.75 lengths at the end of 1106m at this track (Turf). Promising type with improvement to come so a big run is anticipated. WINTERSCAPE (5) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1710m at Meadowlands, beaten 11 lengths into fourth. Meets some better types this time but this looks well within her grasp. VOLADORA (1) was 13 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1106m at this track (Turf) last time following a minor placing on debut the run before. The blinkers go on. Likely improver.
