Penn National Race 5

Claiming

Stake: -

GANGLY (1) Dictated the tempo to win by a margin of 7L last run around here and will appreciate a good alley. Shows good early pace. Angel Cruz rates highly. Winning chance in this line up. AMAZING BERNIE (3) Weakened to finish 5th last time at the track. Happy to forgive that run. Jockey Angel R Rodriguez and trainer Timothy C Kreiser have shared plenty of success together. Keep in mind. CUPID'S DUDE (5) Couldn't maintain the pace when 6th last start at Delaware Park. Expected to rebound but facing formidable opponents. Jockey Paco Lopez is a bonus. Possesses very good finishing speed. Include in chances. DYNAMITE KARMA (4) Didn't threaten when 4th last run here. May see an upturn in form. Should race on the speed. Solid place bet prospects.

Led from start to finish to win by 7L last run around here and can save some energy from the barrier. Angel Cruz is a suitable booking. Should go very close.

Jumped at $12.00 and lost ground in the run home when 4th last run at this track. May see an upturn in form. Won't be far away during the run. Winning chance at nice odds.

At $5.50 weakened under pressure when 6th last start at Delaware Park. Expected to rebound but up against a more competitive field. Paco Lopez is a plus. Represents value.
