Pennsylvania<\/STRONG>–\u00a0 Goodness golly, Miss Molly!\u00a0 DelPenners scraping the barrel, coming out of the woodwork with turf sprinters gallore.\u00a0 From 6\/1 to 80\/1, twenty green stuff gallopers show their nasty spunk in the $500,000 DPCD Turf Sprint<\/EM> over 6.5 furlongs.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Stakes performers will probably sweep the board, but ya never know.\u00a0\u00a0 Those DelPenners aren’t above slipping a certain “chemical” something into their horses’ feed….. thus a longshot might surprise us all.\u00a0 The bookies wouldn’t be happy though — double-digit odds for 80% of the field!\u00a0 What a payoff if someone can slip the mickey……….\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
#1 –\u00a0 Here we go, bobthehat!\u00a0\u00a0 Thank you for writing DelPenn Day BTB Articles.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 And you got a\u00a0small chance with this Kingmambo 5YO, One One One<\/STRONG>.\u00a0\u00a0 Old boy hasnt done much racing of late, but recently returned to the post and improved slightly LTO\u00a0at stakes level.\u00a0\u00a0 Closer gets\u00a0firm turf this time around.\u00a0 Look for a step forward, maybe for some minor dough at best.\u00a0 16\/1<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
–> #2 –\u00a0 Machiavellian War<\/STRONG> smells victory for poppop2.\u00a0 Very competitive, winning 3 of last 8 and in good progress to minor stakes level.\u00a0\u00a0War Chant 4YO is a mild longshot, but very tasty from off pace.\u00a0\u00a0Effective entry.\u00a0 Look for the board at least.\u00a0 8\/1 \u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
#3 –\u00a0 A real trooper sophomore here in Barb’s Libby(IRE)<\/STRONG>.\u00a0\u00a0 Little guy sure gives his all.\u00a0\u00a0 Lowball-type SP#s, but he did manage to beat older horses a couple back.\u00a0\u00a0 Stalker must step up to his lifetime best.\u00a0 Maybe a minor piece of purse would be a good showing for the Giant’s Causeway(IRE) son.\u00a0 Probably pass for the board though.\u00a0 18\/1<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
#4 –\u00a0 Tony’s Whirlaway Tavern<\/STRONG> hopes to better his runner-up performance in last year’s DPCD Turf Sprint<\/EM>.\u00a0 Seeking The Gold\u00a05YO hasn’t been his old sassy self this year though and seems ready for breeding shed.\u00a0\u00a0 How bout a nice round of applause for the old DPCD runner?\u00a0 *clap, clap, clap*\u00a0 Not a prayer for finish line.\u00a0 13\/1 <\/DIV>
\u00a0\u00a0<\/DIV>
–> #5 –\u00a0Woo, woo, Wooo!\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Puzzling why marybarn didn’t put Barb’s Comfort(IRE)<\/STRONG> in the DPCD Mile<\/EM>, but this Theatrical(IRE) has a nice sprint record, so what-they-hey-who.\u00a0 Your racetime favorite flies from way back of the pack.\u00a0\u00a0 Can be beat though if a more experienced sprinter rules the day.\u00a0\u00a0 Still, the class of the field off of his G2 score several back.\u00a0\u00a0 The class to beat.\u00a0 6\/1<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
–> #6 –\u00a0 And here’s the danger zone…. Joe Positive<\/STRONG> was a darn good green stuff galloper in his day and recently returned to racing after lengthy time on the farm.\u00a0 6YO Red Ransom has two starts since under the hood and progressed nicely LTO.\u00a0 Speedster\/pace presser has the goods to surprise.\u00a0 Possible for joplus.\u00a0 9\/1<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
–> #7 –\u00a0 Another “Barb” entry here:\u00a0\u00a0 Barb’s Golden Trio(IRE)<\/STRONG>.\u00a0 Competitive sophomore gives his all\u00a0near each time out.\u00a0\u00a0 Won impressively LTO from off pace over a larger field too.\u00a0\u00a0 Hmmm… very interesting.\u00a0\u00a0 Love to see a hrose on the upswing to pull off a zinger upset.\u00a0 He can also sit forward of midpack too.\u00a0 Very very interesting.\u00a0 <\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
#8 –\u00a0 Here we go, Super-gazillion!\u00a0 Danzig royal bred 3yo filly this time.\u00a0\u00a0 Hollowback Girl’s<\/STRONG> lightly raced and fresh off NW2L.\u00a0 Versatile running style.\u00a0 Big leap and, well, most of the time, the horse spits out the bit.\u00a0 Wouldn’t be a huge surprise with that pedigree to hit the board or so.\u00a0\u00a0 Still, I’ll play the odds and look elsewhere.\u00a0 \u00a023\/1<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
#9 –\u00a0\u00a0 Old boy and vet Stormy Jack<\/STRONG> can still pick up his feet for juju at age 7.\u00a0\u00a0 Storm Cat has the lines and still some pretty nice speed figs.\u00a0 61st career call to post though.\u00a0\u00a0 Nice old boy — I’m not gonna pick him to win over his younger rivals.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
#10 – Pee-ew, Jeff!\u00a0 Anazazi<\/STRONG> has no chance.\u00a0\u00a0 Probably in the post parade to pick a fight with Tony’s horses.\u00a0 Look for jockey Me Fortin(theboondocks) to play roller derby, bouncing this colt off of Jeff’s\u00a0DelPenn rivals\u00a0left and right.\u00a0\u00a0 It’s payback time!\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Gazillion\/1\u00a0\u00a0 <\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
#11 –\u00a0 Another old vet who can still earn his feed.\u00a0 Cielo Salt<\/STRONG> worth his weight, hitting the board 4-times in a row at black type level.\u00a0 Difficult this time around, but might earn a cheque for jmb.\u00a0\u00a0 Minor purse at best for 5YO Sahm son.\u00a0 10\/1<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
#12 –\u00a0 Yicky, yick, yicky.\u00a0\u00a0 Miraloma sends out this old Red Ransom and he’s kind of hot-n-cold of late.\u00a0\u00a0 Touch Too Much<\/STRONG> more effective at lower stakes levels.\u00a0\u00a0 At 37 starts, slowing down, but we’ll see if he stil has his A-game.\u00a0\u00a0 I say look elsewhere.\u00a0 \u00a017\/1<\/DIV>
\u00a0\u00a0 <\/DIV>
#13 –\u00a0Ba-blah, blah, blah.\u00a0 4YO Pine Bluff filly Ransom’s Bluff<\/STRONG> in it for the post parade.\u00a0\u00a0 Domedriver ready to select a sire next year.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0No chance.\u00a0 Zzzzzzzzz……..\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 41\/1<\/DIV>
\u00a0\u00a0 <\/DIV>
#14 – C’mon Black.\u00a0 Jack.\u00a0 Buda<\/STRONG>, where are ya?\u00a0 Gotta wake me up, ‘coz I’m falling asleep…. *yawn* Not much racing of late for godmother’s Gone West 4YO.\u00a0\u00a0 Aint gonna\u00a0do it\u00a0again here.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Snoooozzzzze…\u00a0 31\/1<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
#15 –\u00a0Oh now there’s a conspiracy!\u00a0 How did Tony get the top jockey?!!?\u00a0 Ha!\u00a0 Maybe Piotrowski wants to rumble.\u00a0 I can see it now:\u00a0\u00a0 Jeff’s Anazazi side-by-side with Tony’s nag, Shattered<\/STRONG>.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0It’s the turn for home, jockeys screaming at each other over the wind.\u00a0\u00a0Me Fortin(theboondocks)\u00a0whips Piotrowski over the head.\u00a0\u00a0 Piotrowski battles back,\u00a0tugging on Anazazi’s saddle cloth.\u00a0 The two horses bolt to the grandstands, leap over the outer rail, and tear off into the crowd.\u00a0 \u00a0Railbirds run for their lives.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0BTB Headline the next day:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 None.\u00a0\u00a0 We didn’t post a recap!\u00a0 Ha ha Ha ha HA!\u00a0 Now I’m getting slap happy.\u00a0\u00a0\ud83d\ude42\u00a0 \u00a0 Trillion-billion\/1<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
#16 –\u00a0 Tango me ango, so fango!\u00a0 Ta ta Tah!\u00a0 Malekfarms’ speedster Tango King<\/STRONG> finished 4th in last year’s DPCD\u00a0Turf Sprint<\/EM> renewal.\u00a0\u00a0 Frontrunner hard-pressed to do the same here.\u00a0\u00a0 Doubtful.\u00a0\u00a0 36\/1<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
#17 –\u00a0 Super-duper back again with another sophomore.\u00a0\u00a0 This Miswaki colt rides 2-race ALW win streak.\u00a0\u00a0 Big leap in class though\u00a0quite the stretch for Devil To Pay<\/STRONG>.\u00a0\u00a0 Way hey!\u00a0 Pass.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 23\/1\u00a0 <\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
#18 –\u00a0 Lowball numbers for Valamar<\/STRONG> of late.\u00a0\u00a0 Was a good juvenile last year for jbfarms.\u00a0\u00a0 Gold Legend youngster didn’t progress enough as a sophomore to vie versus the best in his division.\u00a0\u00a0 Outside chance, probably outclassed.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 19\/1<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
–> #19 –\u00a0 Here’s a pretty good threat:\u00a0\u00a0 Tequila With Lime<\/STRONG>.\u00a0\u00a0 Been racing at graded level in short routes of late.\u00a0\u00a0 Shortened up at ALW level LTO and picked up nice score.\u00a0\u00a0 G3-placed earlier this season in turf sprints.\u00a0\u00a0 Zwylde has a better than average chance to play the spoiler with this Lemon Drop Kid 4YO.\u00a0\u00a0 Has a shot\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
–>#20 –\u00a0\u00a0 Sweet 3YO bargain filly G1-placed versus her age group in turf sprints.\u00a0\u00a0 Starinsky<\/STRONG> however doesn’t boast the numbers to likely make a dent here.\u00a0\u00a0 Still, the frontrunner wired an owner-restricted race against males LTO.\u00a0\u00a0 She’ll be in the hunt early for txbred.\u00a0\u00a0 Where she’ll be afterwards\u00a0though…. anyone’s guess, but\u00a0probably\u00a0outrun with those SP#s\u00a0down the lane.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV>
