Pimlico Race 3 - Race 3 - Claiming

BARONG (10) Was strong to the line when winning by a margin of 4L last start Hollywood Casino At Charles Town Races and fitter for debut run. Serious player. EL JUNIOR (2) Won easily by a margin of 3 1/4L last run at Colonial Downs and will try to take advantage of the draw. Goes very close. ELLINGER (3) Despite being overrun still grabbed 2nd beaten by 2L last run at Laurel Park and showing consistent performance in races. First start for a new trainer. Respect in this event. MEDAGOOCH (1) Was agonizingly close last start at Laurel Park and can save some energy from the alley. Exhibiting good form since returning from a spell. Jockey Arnaldo Bocachica rates highly. Can go on with it.
