Delaware Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Mdn Special Weight
LEXINGTON PIKE (2) is a three-year-old colt who is having his first run for the Michael L Catalano Jr barn. Resumes after filling a minor placing at his latest outing six-and-a-half months ago at Aqueduct (Dirt). Not seen at the trials but is in a nice race. Can kick off with a win. STOGIE JOE (4) is a three-year-old gelding who lines up for the first time. From an elite family that includes black type success, being by Eastwood from Kimberley Diamond. A product of the strong juvenile stable of Josue Arce. Promising type who should be about the mark. ON THE ROX (3) is having his second run after he failed to threaten on debut last time, finishing 20 lengths from the winner in ninth over 1106m at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt). Fitter and with the blinkers added is sure to be competitive. RUN AARON RUN (5) is on debut. By Runhappy and comes from the Mclean Robertson stable. Top-three chance.

Four-year-old gelding by Curlin out of American Entente who has taken a long time to make it to the track. Expect there will be plenty of interest from punters.
