Monmouth Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Optional Claiming
PIVOTAL MOMENT (4) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1207m at Aqueduct Turf. Has the talent to take care of this field. IF EVER (6) came from well back on the bend and hit the line strongly to score over 1106m at this track (Turf) last time out. Should be winding up late again. COLD FEET (5) raced on the speed last start and battled on well but found one better over 1106m at this track (Turf). Jorge Luis Gonzalez stays on and although yet to win has been in the money on three occasions. Capable of running a bold race. REALLY QUICK (9) finished seventh two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 1106m at this track, beaten only 1.1 lengths. This looks a good race for him so another forward showing looks likely.
