Top pick: #6 (Word Racer) (5-2) - He was a sharp looking winner here at this tag and trip May 16 as he cleared the 2l condition. Race was his first in seven weeks and a career best overall. Four-year-old by 'Sky Mesa' likes it at Delaware, and he's the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #2 (Rock Warrior) (8-1) - Long shot ships in from Monmouth where he was away slowly and never involved facing tougher on the grass May 16th. It was his first in two months and he may have needed the race. Owner/trainer Susan McBride brings him back quickly, switches him back to the dirt, and drops him to a tag he's comfortable at.
3rd pick: #3 (Abu's Dream) (6-1) - Gelding ran evenly here facing a bit tougher May 16th. Speed/stalker was sharp in three straight at Tampa Bay Downs before that effort and should be involved from start-to-finish.
4th pick: #4 (Single Origin) (3-1) - Stretch runner rallied while wide to finish fourth here at this level May 18th. He draws a better post for this attempt and would love a fast and/or contested pace to develop.
