Delaware Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Starter Allowance

J D FACTOR (4) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fourth and beaten 4 lengths over 1710m at Laurel (Dirt). Commendable record at this trip with a win and five minor placings and is among the leading chances. FREEDOM ROAD (5) could only manage seventh last start over 1710m at Laurel (Dirt), beaten 11 lengths. Hard to knock form this course having never missed the frame including three wins and one placing. Must be respected. TAKE THE PLEDGE (1) finished sixth at Penn National (Dirt) over this distance last time out. Has a strong record at this trip, scoring two times from four starts. Reunites with Julio A Hernandez who has three wins from five rides. Should be involved in the finish. SECRET ZIPPER (2) closed last prep nine weeks ago when he finished second over 1710m at Laurel. Has a solid record here with two wins from five starts. Big run is expected.
