Gulfstream Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Maiden Special Weight
MIZZOU (1) showed good early muster and fought on to finish third last start over 1207m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Finds an easier assignment and can get the chocolates. PLAYING TRICKS (3) is back from a break of eight months. Sat on the pace at his only start and held on well for second over 1308m at Aqueduct (Dirt). Sure to have improved over the break and should be in the finish. NOBLE SKY (5) showed good early dash last start and held on well to finish 3.5 lengths back in second over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. PLAYA AZUL (2) was in the firing line on the turn and finished third last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt), beaten 4.5 lengths. Should be peaking. Placed to advantage so expect another bold run.
