Monmouth Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming

MAXIMATCH (4) stuck on well last start to finish third over 1106m at this track (Turf) after showing good early speed. Meets some better types this time but this looks well within his grasp. PIVOTAL MOMENT (7) is struggling to find the winners' circle but has been around the mark, last start finishing third over 1106m at this track (Turf). Has a win and three minor placings at this trip from five starts so he is a leading contender. DOIN THIS (9) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 2 lengths over 1207m at Monmouth Park (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the good form this campaign, with two wins and two minor placings from six runs. Should be in the finish. SERGEANT CAPPS (10) was in the firing line on the turn and finished second last start over 1207m at Monmouth Park (Dirt), beaten 1.5 lengths. In the right race and is one of the big hopes. Something for the Multiples: BALTIC (3) BALL OF FIRE (2)

Second run back. First-up after three months won by 2.5 len at Delaware Park Turf on August 15 over 1006m defeating House Of David with 56kg at $1.60. Previously second-up 4th in a small field at Laurel on December 6 over 1207m, 5 len behind Neverworkedaday carrying 56.5kg at $4.50. This is tougher so prefer others.
