Parx Racing Race 8

6F Stakes

Stake: $42,935

PRACTICAL COACH (1) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing third when resuming last time out over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Likely improver with strong prospects. JEWELS IN THE BAY (2) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 5 lengths back in fourth over 1408m at this track (Dirt). Will be on the speed in transit and is expected to take some running down. MY MAMBA (7) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1207m at Laurel, beaten 1.5 lengths into fourth. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. MR SANDMAN (4) has not won for a long while. Last raced on May 3 when beaten 7 lengths into fourth at Penn National (Dirt) over 1207m after he was well back on straightening. In the right race and should be competitive.
