Gulfstream Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Allowance Optional Claiming
CARACAS (7) is high on confidence after scoring by 0.3 lengths over 1509m at this track (Turf) last time out. Gets a little weight relief. Key runner. QUIZLER (1) was comfortably accounted for when sixth last time out over 1106m at Gulfstream Park All Weather, beaten 3.5 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Meets a stronger field but he is up to the task. LANDMAN FRIDAY (3) finished fourth two runs back at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic) then improved last time out to score by 2.25 lengths as favourite over 1710m at this track (Turf). Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is right in contention. BLUFF (4) looks close to a win after finishing in the placings at the last couple of runs, the latest when second over 1710m at this track. Record at this shorter journey is sound, including two wins. Among the chances.
