Racing this week
Truxton Stables (0 for 21) tries to get in the win column for the first time with the entire racing stable headed to the track this week.
Wednesday - In the Woods is the 5/2 morning line second choice in the 4th race at Philly Park, a $25,000 claiming race for non-winners of two lifetime with a purse of $27,000. The race is contested over 5 1/2 furlongs. The eight month layoff might be a concern but the morning line favorite, The Right Face, has been on the shelf for 10 months.
Thursday - Delightful Trick is 6/1 morning line for the 6th race at Penn National. She drops down to face $5000 claimers that have not won three races and cuts back to 5 furlongs. The purse is $14,000. I think this is the right spot for her and expect her to run big.

In the Woods finished 4th after stumbling badly at the start and spotting the field a dozen lengths. He'll stretch out to 6 1/2 or 7 furlongs next time out. Delightful Trick made the lead and then was passed in the stretch but hung on for 2nd. She has found her level and will run back when Penn National reopens in a few weeks.
