Delaware Park Race 8

Mdn Special Weight

Prize Money: $62,762

JUST JO JO (7) is yet to break through in five runs. Finished sixth at his last appearance over 1609m at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) on April 10. This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. HARD FREEZE (6) finished third, beaten 7 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1106m at this track (Dirt) after he made late ground. Must raise the bar but this looks well within his grasp. CAP'N CATS (3) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1106m at this track (Dirt). This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is right in contention. HOPEYGOT (1) wasn't far away on debut last start over 1106m at this track (Dirt), finishing third and beaten 4 lengths. Has upside and must be respected.

Second-up. First-up after eight months eased back early on 3rd in a small field at this track on May 23 over 1106m, 7 len behind Rickie's Kin carrying 54kg at $4. Previously second-up made ground from midfield; 2nd of 7 at Laurel on September 28 over 1609m, 4.5 len behind Golden Sand with 52kg at $3.70. Fitter again and a winning hope.
