After he wraps up what could be a record-setting meet at Tampa Bay Downs in six weeks, jockey Samuel Marin will be based at Delaware Park this summer, his agent Mike Moran said Sunday. While Marin will begin the spring at Monmouth Park, which opens May 9, he’ll move to Delaware Park, which opens on May 13. Monmouth races only 50 days this summer – two days a week for seven of the first nine weeks – while Delaware races 75 days with a three-day race week to start before going to four days in July. Moran added that a lot of people for whom Marin rode at Monmouth last summer aren’t going back to the Jersey Shore track this summer. Moran added that being based at Delaware makes it easier to get to other tracks such as Parx, Laurel Park, or Colonial Downs. Marin had a rare Saturday off last weekend. He was scheduled to ride Unwritten Rule in the Texas Glitter Stakes at Gulfstream Park, but the horse was scratched. Marin came back with a three-win Sunday, which gives him 111 wins through the first 67 days of the 90-day meet. Antonio Gallardo set the record for wins at a Tampa meet with 147 in 2015. “We’re really interested in that,” Moran said of getting the record. :: Celebrating 100 Years of racing at Tampa Bay Downs! DRF Past Performances and Picks are available now. However, Moran noted that Marin will be riding at Keeneland April 10 and 11. On April 10, he will ride Third Coast in an allowance for Tom Proctor. On the 11th, he will ride Fast Market in the Grade 1 Jenny Wiley for John Terranova. Marin rode Fast Market to a second-place finish in the Grade 2 Sands Point at Aqueduct last October. Fast Market, with Flavien Prat, came back to win the Grade 3 Pebbles in November. Through Sunday, Marin’s 80 wins on the year were the most by any jockey – two more than Jose Ortiz and Yedsit Hazelwood. “My goal is to have him be leading rider in wins,” Moran said. “By going to Delaware he can go to all these other places, maybe ride seven days a week. He’s riding at Tampa four days a week and he’s in front.” Moran, who has also represented Samy Camacho at the Tampa meet, said Camacho is planning to move his tack to Gulfstream Park in early April. Camacho, who has won five riding titles at Tampa, is currently second in the standings with 73 wins. Maiden race tops Wednesday card Despite breaking from the rail, Loveontheleftbank found herself widest of all – 12 wide is not an exaggeration – in the stretch of a one-mile maiden race in which she finished fourth on Feb. 1. Wednesday, Loveontheleftbank gets another chance to clear the maiden ranks as she is part of an eight-horse field in a 1 1/16-mile maiden turf race that looks like the best offering on Tampa’s nine-race card. Loveontheleftbank, trained by Miguel Clement, was beaten all of a half-length as they were five across the course at the finish of that Feb. 1 race. The longshot Calla won the race by a head over Marketplaceofideas, who was a nose better than Pop Art, who was third by a neck over Loveontheleftbank. Pop Art, who found a seam to split horses in the two-path in that race, is back in this race. Clement is still flabbergasted by Loveontheleftbank’s trip that day, but was diplomatic about it. “That was a tough one,” said Clement, who is making a rider change to Samy Camacho from Cipriano Gil. Pop Art, trained by Tom Proctor, gets a rider change from the recently retired Pablo Morales to Marin. Mad House to Count Fleet Mad House, who came off a 125-day layoff to win an allowance race impressively at Tampa on March 6, will make his next start in the Grade 3 Count Fleet Handicap at Oaklawn Park on April 11, trainer David Van Winkle said. “It’s a nice pot and the timing’s about right,” Van Winkle said. Mad House, a Florida-bred gelding by Vekoma, won the Grade 2 Gallant Bob at Parx last September, capping a four-race win streak, three of those wins coming at Canterbury Park. Mad House then attempted the Breeders’ Cup Sprint where he finished last of 14. “He was a 3-year-old running against older horses, it just wasn’t his day,” Van Winkle said. On March 6, Mad House was a 3 3/4-length winner of a conditioned allowance at Tampa, running six furlongs in 1:08.85 – just missing the track record of 1:08.67 set by It’s Me Mom in 2014 – and earning a 91 Beyer Speed Figure. “I thought we had him pretty close to being ready, I was really impressed with the way he came back,” Van Winkle said. On Sunday, Mad House returned to the work tab, breezing a half-mile in 48 seconds, the fastest of 68 workouts recorded at the distance. :: Want to learn more about handicapping and wagering?
