Gulfstream Park Race 6 - Race 6 - Starter Optional Claiming
JESTINA (3) finished third two runs back at this track (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 3 lengths over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Micah J Husbands scored on her last time and retains the ride. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot score again. COQUETA BLUE (6) bounced back last start and scored by 2.5 lengths after being in contention on the bend as favourite over 1609m at this track (Dirt). This looks a sterner test than last time but on her best form she is good enough to cope. SAMARITAN'S JOY (1) finished out of the money two starts back then she settled well back and was beaten 9 lengths when fifth in a 1207m contest at this track eight weeks ago. This is a nice drop in grade so she is likely to play a big role. STARSHIP JULIETTE (5) was safely held when second last start over 1308m at this track, beaten 3 lengths after a good win on debut at this track. In contention this time.
