Delaware Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Starter Optional Claiming

CADET CORPS (9) stepped up in trip to 1811m last time in stakes class at Laurel (Dirt) and ran below his best, finishing 12 lengths away in fifth. Better suited at this shorter trip so rates among the leading chances. BAYTOWN BRUISER (1) lines up for the hat-trick after registering a strong win last time over 1710m at Churchill Downs (Dirt), scoring by 0.8 lengths. Should be poised just off the lead. Sure to be in the finish. MAGICAL WAYS (2) is in top form with three wins on end, the most recent an effortless 3 lengths victory over 1673m at Delaware Park Turf (Turf) four weeks ago. Sound record at this distance with four wins and six minor placings from 14 runs and has winning claims on best figures. MAD BANKER (6) has switched yards since finishing second five-and-a-half weeks ago over 1609m at this track. Has ability and makes plenty of appeal. Something for the Multiples: WHO'S THE KING (5)
