Laurel Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Allowance Optional Claiming
CARTRIDGE (2) Charged home to win last time at Belmont Park and can find a nice position from the draw. Jockey Jaime Rodriguez and trainer Jeremiah C Englehart are a strong combination. Won't be far away. WESTBOUND CAT (7) Ran past a few when 4th last time at Delaware Park and competing at a lower grade. Emanuel Rosario and Gary Capuano are a strong duo. Worth strong consideration. BRANNHOG (6) Showed a clean pair of heels to win by a margin of 1 1/2L last run here and stepping up in trip. Displays good tactical speed. A win wouldn't surprise. WAR REPORT (5) Bold effort when winning last run at the track but up against a more competitive field. Winning hope.

Finished with purpose when winning last time at Belmont Park and will try to take advantage of the barrier. Jaime Rodriguez and Jeremiah C Englehart are usually a competitive duo. Rates as one of the key chances.

Faded to finish 5th last time around here but facing a weaker grade. Likely to be well placed early. Racing over more ground. Pass.

Good effort to place 3rd beaten by close to 9L last run around here and challenged by weaker competitors. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Rough hope.

Made all when winning by 1 1/2L last run at this venue and going over extra ground. Has plenty of early speed. Competing at a higher level of competition. Good chance and definitely has claims.

Jumped at $5.50 and made up ground when 4th last time at Delaware Park and matched against less formidable competition. Chance and can measure up.
