Delaware Park Race 7

Allowance

Prize Money: $61,934

FREEDOM ROAD (3) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 6 lengths over 1308m at Parx (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with four wins and four minor placings from 10 starts. Can measure up again. WILLOW CREEK ROAD (1) has been in the market at his last couple of starts but hasn't made an impression, last start finishing eighth over 1710m at Listed level at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Rates highly on best figures. CAJUN DREAM (4) turned in a modest performance when fifth last start over 1207m at Pimlico, beaten 6 lengths. That followed a good first-up win at Charles Town. Has the talent to produce another win. NEUSCHWANSTEIN (5) is back at the races for the first time since January 27. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1408m at Laurel. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
