Delaware Park picks and analysis: July 9, 2025
The Biz- July 9, 2025
Picks and analysis for this afternoon’s card from Delaware Park:
- RACES ON CARD: 8
- CARRYOVERS: None
- POST TIME: 12:30 p.m.
RACE 1
| 3. Renegade Serenade | Bombs away? This guy’s not good, but he does have early speed in a race woefully short of it; might catch a price on a horse who should get loose on the lead |
| 4. Crabcakes N Beer | Lightly raced runner has posted both wins on dirt |
| 2. Formal Affair | Most recent dirt try has produced two next-out winners to date |
RACE 2
| 3. Tojo’s Mojo | Figs say he doesn’t quite stack up, but he arrives off a win and should get the lively pace he wants to run into |
| 1. Medagooch | Tough beat in latest when unable to fend off 7-5 Bold Diversion; one concern is those five runner-up finishes, versus only one win, in 10 at the trip |
| 6. Cloud Without Rein | Drop-down to cheaper seems to have done a world of good, as he’s reeled off three straight good outings; should be involved in the early action |
RACE 3 – OFF THE TURF
| 7. Fuzzy | Half to a runner who won his first three, including the Bath House Row at OP |
| 3. Fifth Gear | Useful enough debut with some trip trouble |
| 5. Conch Fried Rice | Has some excuses |

RACE 4
| 1. Mistical Curlin | Won an allowance in New York last year, ran ok in latest, and trainer Ness wins at a 30% clip second off the claim |
| 8. Fear of Union | Compton trainee seems to hvae turned the corner last several starts and perhaps will be an inch fitter than latest when tiring to finish behind two of these |
| 2. Joe the Jet | Condition skipper arrives off a win |
RACE 5
| 1. Catatumbo | Beat similar three back and solid outing in latest |
| 3. Majestic Tiger | Attracts Ness’s go-to rider for first in barn after sneaky-good effort when rebounding from hopping at the start to give willing chase to 1-2 winner |
| 7. Lookin At Roses | Nothing wrong with latest when chasing 4-5 Golden Juan, who won for the fifth time in six outings |
RACE 6 – OFF THE TURF
| 9. If I Were You | If ya like Crabcakes N Beer in the first, you kinda gotta like this horse, too; dirt form the best of these and just missed in latest |
| 11. Muthabir | First in the Richards barn (1-for-27 this year); dirt form fits |
| 5. Master Munnings | Best wins here |
RACE 7
| 6. Town’s Warrior | Bested Penn allowance foes in latest, which just squeezes under condition’s earnings cap; in the exacta four straight and tactical enough to pounce on the leaders |
| 8. Frosty the Giant | Likely speed of the speed but may be pressed early, which could provide similar result to latest on dirt |
| 7. Bill of Rights | Consisten sort should have a pace to run into and arrives off a win |
RACE 8
| 7. Pinotslilgirl | Has been one-two in last five dirt starts and should sit a good trip off some inside speed; some concern about the one-week turnaround, and 0-for-5 mark at the trip is suboptimal |
| 3. Devil Pays in Gold | Loves Delaware (6-for-6 in the money) and this trip (9-for-11 ITM) |
| 5. You’re the One | Much-improved early lick in latest led to big win; can she repeat off career-best? |
