Parx Racing Race 4 - 6 1/2F Stakes
PERSIAN (4) last appeared six-and-a-half weeks ago over 1207m at Laurel when she finished third. This is her first run for the Jamie Ness stable. Nicely placed here and expected to go well. CHURNING BERNI (3) broke through for her maiden win over 1710m at Laurel (Dirt) last time, scoring comfortably. Shaping up nicely and she cannot be discounted. TIPTOP (6) is a last-start winner five-and-a-half weeks ago, scoring by 7 lengths over 1207m at this track. Deserves serious consideration. MARELOW (5) has switched yards since finishing fourth five-and-a-half weeks ago over 1609m at Turfway Park.
