Gulfstream Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance Optional Claiming
BANDED ROCKET (4) started at $4.60 last time on the back of a win at Gulfstream Park Turf (Turf) two starts ago but was below his best, finishing fifth over 1006m at Gulfstream Park Turf (Turf). Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is right in contention. GIANT TEDDY (5) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1006m at Gulfstream Park Turf (Turf). Likely improver with strong prospects. GABALDON (3) comes here off a break of four-and-a-half months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1006m at Gulfstream Park Turf. Has found a suitable race and is worth including. TRELAWNY (6) lines up on the back of a 6 length sixth over 1207m at Gulfstream Park. One of the better chances.

Returns from a 36-day let-up. At the latest run 6th of 8 at Gulfstream Park in LR on April 25 over 1207m, 6 len behind My Boy Star with 54.5kg at $35.40. The start before that ran on from midfield and won by 1.3 len at this track April 2 over 1106m defeating Justin Smiles carrying 55.5kg at $9. Better than that recent ordinary performance suggests.
