Delaware Park Race 9

Allowance

Stake: $122,202

EASTBOSTONBENNY (4) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 1.5 lengths over today's trip at Colonial Downs (Dirt). Has a good record at this trip with two wins and one placings. Top chance. ELVIS HIMSELF (2) missed the placings two runs back then didn't feature last start when 3.5 lengths away in sixth over 1106m at Colonial Downs. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. IRISH HERO (6) scored last start at this track (Dirt) to make it four wins from seven starts this campaign. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Capable of testing this field. BOAT SONG (10) was in contention on the corner and finished second last start over 1106m at this track (Dirt), beaten one length. Taking on a better field but he is capable of a big run.
