Delaware Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance
CHANCE (7) finished last campaign with a couple of minor placings, the latest over 1609m at Parx 11 weeks ago. Should park just off the speed. Best figures should see him run well. I AM I SAID (11) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fifth, beaten 2 lengths, over 2213m at Saratoga Inner Turf (Turf). Will strip fitter and is among the main hopes. COPPER GHOST (5) produced a reasonable effort when seventh last start over 1710m at Monmouth Park Turf, beaten 2.75 lengths. That followed a win at Laurel Turf the start prior. Nicely placed to take this out. SOUND BITE (10) raced on the pace before drawing clear to score a 1.75 lengths win over this course and distance last time. Worth including.

Racing well recently. Last start favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 1.75 len at this track June 13 over 1710m defeating Practical Joker carrying 55.5kg at $4. The run before that 4th of 9 at Gulfstream Park Turf on April 26 over 1609m, 8 len behind Serac with 55.5kg at $5.30. One of the prime contenders in a most suitable contest.
