Delaware Park Race 5 - First State Dash S. Stakes
BEARING WITNESS (10) Dictated terms in front to win by 9L last run around here but matched against a stronger field. Been in the placegetters each attempt this campaign. Should go close. MAD EYE'S HONOR (2) Romped home to win last start around here and will try to take advantage of the draw. Has run into the money at every start this preparation. Serious player. WALT'S NOTION (6) Dashed home to win last run here and having second race start. Stepping up to a higher level. Goes very close. WESTBOUND CAT (4) Had a comfortable win by just short of 7L last run at the track but back in trip. Has a nice turn of foot. Yedsit Hazlewood is a suitable booking. Has some strong credentials in this race.

Came on strongly to finish 2nd last start at Colonial Downs and drawn beautifully. Jaime Rodriguez and Edward T Allard are highly regarded when paired. Up in grade. Small possibility.

At $8.50 couldn't stay in touch when 5th last start at this venue and up against stronger opponents. Likely to get back in the run. Prefer in an easier race.

Kicked clear when winning by a margin of nearly 7L last run at this track but back to a shorter distance. Yedsit Hazlewood rates highly aboard. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Jumped at $16.00 and picked up some late ground when 4th last time at Colonial Downs but matched against tougher rivals. Jamie Ness stable are running hot lately. Entitled to be big odds.

Did well to run into 2nd last run around here and having second race start. Racing for a new trainer but racing in stronger company. May find these too slick.
