Seven were entered for Sunday's $300,000 Leonard Richards S. (G3) at Delaware
Park, but only four will start. Scrappy T (Fit to Fight) is out due to a minor
recent injury, Papi Chullo (Comeonmom) broke his maiden on Friday at Belmont Park
and Golden Man (Suave Prospect) finished third in Saturday's Long Branch
Breeders' Cup S. (G3) at Monmouth Park. HIGH LIMIT (Maria's Mon) is the one to
beat as the lone speed in the small field.
A dominant winner in two juvenile starts over the track, High Limit loves
Delaware and owns a win at the 1 1/16-mile distance in the Louisiana Derby (G2).
The Bobby Frankel trainee bounced back from a terrible trip in the Kentucky Derby (G1)
to finish a decent fifth in the Preakness S. (G1) after setting a torrid pace,
and the bay colt has been working well in the mornings at Belmont for his
return. High Limit will be difficult to catch under Edgar Prado.
SUN KING (Charismatic) raced well in his first two appearances this season
but appeared to tail off a little for conditioner Nick Zito when recording
unplaced finishes in the Blue Grass S. (G1) and Kentucky Derby. The dark bay
colt bounced back with an improved fourth-place effort in the Preakness, and Sun
King owns plenty of promise with century-topping BRIS Speed ratings in six of
his last eight starts. He's a threat to reel in the pacesetter but will most
likely have to settle for second.
SORT IT OUT (Out of Place) was scratched from Saturday's New York Derby at
Finger Lakes for this spot but doesn't own much tactical speed. The Bob Baffert-trained
grinder will probably have difficultly making much of an impact from off the
pace here.
LETTERMAN'S HUMOR (Distorted Humor) doesn't look fast enough to challenge.
