Monmouth Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance Optional Claiming
ISLAND SPIRIT (5) got home by just half a length at his latest appearance over 1106m at Monmouth Park Turf (Turf). Gets some weight relief this time so he is worth following up. DOIN THIS (7) got home by 7 lengths last time out over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Has a decent record at this track with two wins and six minor placings from 15 starts. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Likely to feature. SUPERFRACTOR (8) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1207m at this track after being in contention on the bend. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. ROMA ART (6) debuted with a win then was less impressive last time out when seventh over 1207m at this track, beaten 13 lengths. Worth another chance.
