Delaware Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Maiden Claiming
KALADIN (3) was beaten a nose into second at this track two starts ago then finished 5 lengths from the winner in fourth last time at this track (Dirt). Backmarker who gets home hard. Best form stacks up nicely and deserves another chance. MESSI THE GREAT (9) is a three-year-old colt who is having his first run for the Victor Carrasco Jr stable. Hasn't raced since finishing 11th at Churchill Downs (Dirt) eight months ago. Not seen at the trials but is in a nice race. Definite winning chance. HOARDING (5) started at $2.90 last time and ran below expectations, finishing ninth and beaten 31 lengths at this track (Turf) over 1006m. Has the ability to produce a better result. FURIOUS GEORGE (8) progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1207m at Laurel after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle.
