Gulfstream Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Maiden Special Weight
DELIGHTFULLY (2) is a three-year-old filly on debut by Tapit from Delightful Quality who has been a fine producer including a winner at G1 level. Comes from a stable which has an impressive strike rate with the first-starters. Promising type who appeals as the hardest to beat. BON VIVANT (4) resumes today after filling a minor placing at her only appearance last prep at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt) over 1308m on November 28. Capable of playing a major role. FIDELA (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she was always well out of her ground over 1207m at Tampa Bay Downs, beaten 20 lengths into seventh. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is one of the key runners. NAHLA (5) was well supported on debut last start and turned in a strong effort to finish second over 1646m at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt). Has ability and worth including.
