Parx Racing Race 8 - 1m 1/2f Stakes

YOUBETTERBEJOKING (1) raced on the pace before drawing clear to score a nose win over this course and distance last time. Good record at this journey with three wins and six minor placings from 13 starts and is expected to feature. RECKER POINT (6) returned from a spell last start with a strong win by 2.5 lengths over 1673m at Delaware Park (Dirt). Open to plenty of improvement and looks a big threat to the top selection. BEST BET (4) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 10 lengths back in fourth over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Must be included among the main hopes. J J'S RANGER (3) last appeared eight weeks ago over 1673m at this track when he finished fifth. This is his first run for the Ronald Abrams stable. Can measure up for the new barn.

Second run back. First-up after three months won by 2.5 len at Delaware Park on August 21 over 1673m defeating Good As He Gets with 55.5kg at $2. Previously second-up came from midfield and won by 3 len at this track on December 29 over 1408m defeating Downtownchalybrown carrying 53kg at $4.20. Great chance to make it two in a row. Improver with winning prospects.
