Gulfstream Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Maiden Special Weight
BURNING BRIDGES (5) will find this a little easier than his second on debut a month ago, beaten 2.25 lengths at the end of 1006m at this track (Turf). Likely improver so he will prove tough to beat. JUBILEE PARADE (6) finished third, beaten 2.5 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1006m at this track (Turf). Likely improver with strong prospects. NANOSECOND (1) has not raced since his debut back on January 10 when he finished sixth over 1408m at Gulfstream Park (Dirt). Will take a lot from that last run and is worth following up. GENERAL BRADLEY (4) is facing the starter for the first time. By Omaha Beach and hails from the Saffie A Joseph (Jnr) stable. Worth watching for a betting push.

Resuming after a break; only one run when 6th of 8 at Gulfstream Park on January 10 over 1408m, 20 len behind Chief Wallabee with 55.5kg at $4.70. Has the talent to take this out.

Was well in the market at debut, led but faded 2nd of 8 at this track on February 15 over 1006m, 2.25 len behind Wit Storm carrying 55.5kg at $4.10. Sure to take a lot from that experience and makes plenty of appeal.
