LIFE AT TEN WINS THE DELAWARE HANDICAP!

Life at Ten proved she can win at ten furlongs by easily winning the grade II Delaware Handicap at Delaware Park.

Quickly sent to the lead by jockey John Velazquez, Life at Ten cruised along through easy fractions and held off the late run of Miss Singhsix to win the $750,000 event by daylight.

The win was Life at Ten's sixth in a row, and she is rapidly becoming one of the top older mares in the country.

Miss Singhsix came strongly to finish second, but never really threatened the winner. Funny Moon finished third, with Milwaukee Appeal, Miss Match, and Million Seller.

Life at Ten, the 3-5 favorite, paid 3.20, 2.40, and 2.10. The final time was 2:02 1/5.

So here are the results. . .

1 Life at Ten
2 Miss Singhsix
3 Funny Moon
4 Milwaukee Appeal
5 Miss Match
6 Million Seller

. . . and here were my picks.

1 Life at Ten
2 Funny Moon

Not too bad!
