Today's Delaware Park Horse Racing Picks

Rabbit

Also known as a pacemaker; this is a horse with no expected chance of winning but is used to prompt a quick pace on the front end of the race to the benefit of a stablemate who is a closer.

Bolt

A sudden veering to the inside or outside rail, often caused by the horse spooking or shying from something.

Paddock

The area where horses gather before the race to be saddled and paraded for the public.
