Gulfstream Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Maiden Special Weight
CLASSY BEACH (5) is a five-start maiden who finished sixth at her most recent outing over 1106m at Fairgrounds Turf (Turf). Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. EMERALD EMBER (4) is yet to break through after three career starts. Could only manage to finish fourth last time out over 1408m at Listed level at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt) following a minor placing at Gulfstream Park Turf (Turf) when fresh from a spell the run prior. Likely to play a major role. OCALA GALA (1) impressed last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished 3 lengths from the winner in second over 1106m at Fairgrounds Turf after being prominent at the turn. Going up a level this time but she is up to the challenge. LONDON (3) has not raced since she finished third on debut over 1006m at Gulfstream Park Turf on August 1. Among the main hopes.

Comes off a 42 day let-up. Most recently 6th of 8 at Fairgrounds Turf on March 5 over 1106m, 7 len behind Don't Come Looking carrying 56.5kg at $4.10. Before that held ground to the line 3rd of 9 at Fairgrounds Turf on February 5 over 1106m, 3 len behind Twolatebabydoll with 56.5kg at $6. Can make amends.
