Monmouth Park Race 5

Charles Hesse Iii H. Stakes

Stake: -

RIDING PRETTY (4) Shot away to win by a margin of 3 1/4L last start at the track and competing in an easier class. Exhibiting good form this campaign. Suitably placed in this race. SMUGGLER'S GOLD (1) Made ground when closing off to finish 5th last start here and has drawn the rails. Has a great burst of speed late. Going over extra ground. A win wouldn't surprise. LAST ROMANCE (6) Just shy of the win last start at this venue and challenged by less formidable competitors. Paco Lopez rates highly. Very competitive this campaign. Appears well in this. MAX'S GLORY (2) Romped home to win last start here and will try to take advantage of the alley. Should muster plenty of early toe. Facing formidable opponents. Showing improvement in recent outings. One of the major players.
