Monmouth Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Claiming
EMPIRE SKY (3) did a good job last time, finishing in the money when second over 1106m at this track (Turf). Has a decent record at this track with six minor placings from eight runs. Expected to be in the finish. TWIRLING EXPRESS (2) was in the money two starts back at Laurel but was unable to repeat the effort last time when eighth, beaten 8 lengths, at Colonial Downs (Turf) over 1609m. Has the talent to figure prominently. LUCKY TWIST (8) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fourth, beaten 4 lengths, over 1106m at this track (Turf) after he was in contention on the turn. Will strip fitter and is ready to show what he can do. ITS PIZZA TIME (7) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1710m at this track (Turf). Likely improver with strong prospects.
