Gulfstream Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Hcp

BACK EM UP (8) wasn't far away last time out, finishing second over 1408m at Listed level at this track (Dirt) when he was always up in the leading division. The extra journey should play into his hands. Winning chance. LIGHTNING TONES (1) returns from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when fourth over 1710m in the G3 Ghostzapper Stakes at this track (Dirt). Capable of playing a major role. NOTHINGSUBTLE (4) was in contention on the corner and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1609m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. STEAL SUNSHINE (6) worked home well and finished second last time over 1710m at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten half a length. Placed to advantage and can take this out.
