Penn National Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn Claiming
BATANT (4) finished fifth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1673m at this track, beaten 7 lengths after being prominent at the turn. Nicely placed to find winning ways. BABY RASTA (1) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1207m at Delaware Park. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. CROWN APPLE (5) was in a rearwards position on the turn last time out before finishing 19 lengths from the winner in fourth over 1710m at this track (Dirt). Expected to feature in the finish this time. JOHNNY MAC (3) was safely held last start on debut over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Should appreciate the longer journey now. With blinkers added expect to see plenty of improvement.

Four-year-old gelding (Liam's Map - Liquorice Marilyn) at the races for the first time. Purchased for USD $ 75,000 (Fasig-Tipton 2024 Midlantic May Two-Year-Olds in Training). This looks a tricky race for him.
