Delta Downs Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming
LUAU LARRY'S (1) First up from a break. Dictated the tempo to win by just short of 16L last run at Louisiana Downs and was a debutant last start. Can go on with it. KASON'S BUCKAROO (8) Pulled away to win by just short of 11L last time at Sweetwater Downs and showing consistent performance in races. David Cardoso and Mark N Hibdon are a strong team. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds. WAVE MAKER (2) Shot clear to win by a margin of 4 1/2L last time at Mountaineer Park and was on debut last time. Recent form of the stable is strong. Worth a ticket. GRACIE BABY (4) Resuming after a spell. Got the prize when winning by 2 3/4L last run at Arapahoe Park but up against tougher opponents. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Worth an each way bet in this.

Racing fresh today after a break. Led throughout when winning by close to 16L last run at Louisiana Downs and having second career run. Has the ideal gate. Good chance and definitely has claims.

Started $20.00 and tailed off to finish 7th last run at Louisiana Downs but solid career start. Competing in a higher grade. Entitled to be big odds.

Fresh after a break. Won by 2 3/4L last run at Arapahoe Park but competing in a more challenging grade. Should muster plenty of early toe. Could feature prominently.

Was $8.50 and made up ground when 4th last run at this track and fitter for debut run. Recent form of Jonathan Wong is strong but rising in grade. Can't entertain a bet.

Rocketed home when winning last start at this venue but down in distance. Displays good tactical speed. Up in class. Too much luck needed to come into contention.

Mediocre display when 6th last run at Prairie Meadows but competing in an easier class. In good shape since coming back from a spell and good career start. Can't have on what it has been showing.

Won with a leg in the air by close to 11L last time at Sweetwater Downs and promising career start. Will be positive in the run early. Strong prospects in this race.
