Gulfstream Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Claiming
KULAPAT (2) finished second at this track and distance at his last appearance three months ago. Lines up today for the first time for trainer M J Maker. Should be hard to stop. SHOTGUN (1) broke through for his maiden win over 1609m at this track (Turf) last time, scoring comfortably. Shaping up nicely and he cannot be discounted. WALKING IN MEMPHIS (3) finished tenth over 1710m at this track (Turf) at his most recent appearance on January 3. One to consider. IRISH GENT (4) struggling to break through and over a year since a win, last start finishing second over 1609m at this track (Turf). Best figues too good to ignore and appeals as an each way hope.
