The nine-race card Friday at Laurel Park contains a 2-year-old maiden race, a third-level optional claimer, and a second-level optional claimer, which are slotted as races 6 through 8. The races are part of the Rainbow 6, which has a carryover of $8,834; the 12 percent takeout pick five; the late pick four; and are connected by a pick three and rolling daily doubles. While the optional-claiming races are competitive, Tricks to Doo figures a short-priced favorite while making his second start in the six-furlong maiden race. Trained by Arnaud Delacour, Tricks to Doo raced forwardly throughout in his debut Oct. 7 at Keeneland, finishing third to Rubus and Conquistador. Rubus was a $260,000 2-year-old purchase at the Ocala Breeders Sales’ April auction and races for trainer Philip Bauer. Conquistador, a $450,000 buy at the same sale, was making his debut for Mark Casse. Tricks to Doo was well clear of the others in the 10-horse field and earned a Beyer Speed figure of 81. In Race 7, at 1 1/16 miles on turf, Second Mate and Wolf Rock will meet again. Second Mate defeated Wolf Rock by a neck in a second-level race at Monmouth in July. Wolf Rock has since come back to win. Both are improving. English Minister is always close at the finish and broke through with a win last time out, but his 4-for-38 record speaks volumes about him. Race 8, at six furlongs on the main track, can go many different ways. It should be noted Mo’ne Davis, who is trained by Delacour, has faced Shimmering Aspen and Sine Wave – two of the better 3-year-old fillies in the region – in her last two starts and her form is hidden to a degree. Jessica Krupnick will be making her first start since January. Before she went to the sidelines, she was knocking on the door at this level. Trainer Tres Abbott has worked her seven times at Fair Hill since Sept. 9, including three consecutive five-furlong breezes. She could be overlooked in the betting.
