DEL SEPT. 29

Score $17.60 for $14.00

1: City Savvy, only speed with any class, switches to better trainer.
*Woody's Apache. Just not the same horse this year. 0/3 in this low, low class.
* Bubba's Reprised. Maiden win, slop win, otherwise 0/17.
* Script Writer has a shot, but won with Dominguez, not the guy up today.
* Free of Secrets. Maybe Alabarado can get him out of the gate.
City Savvy lost at 1/1.

2: Jane Posey Road. Better 2nd race, likely to improve again.
Placed at 2/1

3: Pay the Preacher. Lake with Castellano =2/1. Six of last 10 races good enough to win here.
Pass at 4/5.

4: Stormin Jon Jon. Lake, Castellano again. Toss a race, and he crushed last like this one.
Pass at 4/5.

5: Goursac has proved himself with best fig on the turf.
*Mass just missed in 13th try to break maiden, but that was a pace meltdown. Ignore that atypical speed figure.
Missed at 9/5.

6: Newfy. A 2/1 horse who has twice proven the power to win at this speed class. Toss last race where he was intimidated by his betters.
* Blue Finally. A declining horse, 1/8 in last two years.
*Rythymn Master, the main threat, has the class and ran sharp last time off a vacation.
*Menacing. Wins and blows up. Wins and blows up. Won last time so now...
* Piety. Spectacular. Then claimed from Frankel. Turned dull. But in the hands of Bruce Levine now, so could return to form at a nice price.
Faded in stretch at 2/1.

7: Tagg brings maiden loser Pure Revenge out to the claimers. Bernie is the main competitor. Put 'em in a box.
$4 box paid $11.40.

8: Barcola Did not like N.J, loves Delaware.
Destroyed the field and paid $6.20.
*Nkosi Rains. Talent, yes. Distance, no. Rider, no.
*Better Than Bonds a hanger, likely for place.
All others are outclassed. Suggests a tri, doesn't it.

A lot of hot chalk and maybe some pick 3s on this card.
