Gulfstream Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Maiden Special Weight

STRIKING FINALE (1) has accrued five minor placings from seven runs this campaign. One length from the winner in second last time out over 1673m at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic). Tackling a deeper field this time but she is good enough to take this out. MONEY TRAIL (4) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at Tampa Bay Downs Turf (Turf) over 1609m after being in contention all the way. Facing a tougher assignment but she is up to the task. SUNFISH (3) was narrowly beaten at a huge quote last time out, finishing second over 1609m at this track (Turf). Definite danger again. CAJUN EMPRESS (6) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she was always well out of her ground over 1509m at this track, beaten 7 lengths into fourth. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well.
