Gulfstream Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming

OPERATION TORCH (8) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 12 starts. Was again denied last start when he found one better over 1710m at this track. Likely contender with strong prospects. SARATOGA CRUISER (3) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when ninth, beaten 11 lengths, over 1710m at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic). Likely improver with strong prospects. PEPPERMINT MAN (5) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fifth over 1710m at this track (Turf) after being prominent at the turn. Best figures measure up nicely. Can do a lot better. CANDY ADDICTION (4) turned things around last start and scored by 2.5 lengths over 1673m at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic). Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake.

At the latest run ran last of 9 at Gulfstream Park All Weather on April 24 over 1710m, 11 len behind Backdoor Royalty carrying 57kg at $21.10. The start before that 4th of 9 at this track on April 4 over 1710m, 8 len behind Back In The Saddle carrying 57kg at $36.90. Could easily blow them away in the dying stages.
