Delaware Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Mdn Claiming
HOTTER THAN FIRE (8) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 1.75 lengths away in third over 1710m at this track (Turf) when she was always up in the leading division. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. SHE'S A CANNY LASS (12) is going well with three minor placings from three starts this prep. Continued the trend last time out when third over 1207m at Delaware Park (Dirt). Meets a stronger field but she is good enough to figure in the finish. KINDA CLEVER (5) is yet to break through in eight runs. Finished fourth at her last appearance over 1710m at this track (Turf) on August 15. Solid top-three chance on her best figures. GOLDEN ELLIE (9) progressed nicely last time out to finish just half a length from the winner in second over 1006m at this track. This looks a good race for her and she is one of the key runners. Something for the Multiples: QUEEN KHALEESI (7)
