Monmouth Park Race 6 - Race 6 - Maiden Special Weight

MYSTICAL MERLIN (1) resumes. Didn't make an impact at his only run last prep on December 26, finishing fifth and beaten 27 lengths over 1609m at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Lining up today for the first time for trainer Charles Spina. Jorge A Vargas Jr goes well on this four-year-old and is back on top today. Should be in the finish. U DIRTY DOG (8) is back from a spell of seven months. Turned in a fair effort at Meadowlands (Turf) over 1006m at his only run last prep, finishing fourth and beaten 1.5 lengths. Settles back early but winds up late. Will prove tough to beat. TWIN LIGHTS (5) raced on the speed from the outset when resuming last start and finished third, beaten 2.25 lengths, over 1207m at Gulfstream Park (Dirt). Steps up a level but he is good enough to take this out. ACES FULL (10) is appearing for the first time. By Tom's D'etat and comes from the Kelly J Breen stable. Top-three chance.
