Laurel Park Race 4

Claiming

Stake: $32,628

IRISH LACE (2) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations first-up at this track (Dirt), finishing seventh and beaten 11 lengths over 1609m. Likely improver with strong prospects. MIT MAZEL (5) is back from a spell of 13 months. Closed last campaign with a minor placing over 1207m at Pimlico (Dirt). Comes here with definite claims. COAL MINE (3) has missed the frame in both runs this time in, both on turf. Finished tenth at Pimlico fresh then again missed the frame when tenth at this track over 1609m two weeks ago. Well placed and can make amends. SHELL BELLE (1) finished second over 1673m at Parx (Dirt) at her most recent appearance on April 23. Can make her presence felt.
