Delaware Park Race 6 - Battery Park S. Stakes
BARBADIAN RUNNER (2) finished fifth in the G2 Charles Town Classic (Dirt) over this distance last time out. Has a strong record at this trip, scoring four times from six starts. Has a high cruising speed. Will prove tough to beat. HILL ROAD (6) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1609m at Belmont Park, beaten 5 lengths. This looks a sterner test than last time but with added fitness he is capable of a big performance. BENDOOG (5) is back at the races for the first time since July 11. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1710m at Oaklawn Park. Boasts a first-up record of three wins and three placings from seven starts. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race. COOKE CREEK (4) was in the firing line on the bend and finished third last time over 1811m at Saratoga (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 3 lengths. Will trim down second-up. Capable of another strong performance.
