Gulfstream Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Maiden Claiming
VANESSA'S WISH (10) is a 19-start maiden finding it tough to get off the mark but is knocking on the door, finishing fourth over 1106m at this track (Synthetic) last time out. Likely improver with strong prospects. STARSHIP SAKURA (6) is a nicely bred four-year-old filly lining up for the first time. By Volatile from Iteration who has produced some fine gallopers, including winners at black type level. Promising type who should be about the mark. SHE'S LIT (9) hit the frame two starts ago at Tampa Bay Downs Turf but ran below par last time when ninth and beaten 15 lengths over 1609m at Tampa Bay Downs Turf (Turf). It doesn't get any easier but on her best form she is one of the key runners. MISKITA (2) could only manage to finish fourth, beaten 7 lengths, after being in contention on the bend at her latest appearance over 1106m at this track (Synthetic). Rates highly in this field and can turn things around.
