Tampa Bay Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Starter Optional Claiming
KNICK'S HONOR (1) has returned in good order this campaign. Ran well but found one better last time over 1609m at this track (Turf) after registering his maiden win first-up the run before. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Expecting a bold showing. EMPIRE OF GLORY (2) has failed to figure of late. Two runs ago was out of the money over 1609m at Aqueduct. At the latest run he failed to complete the course at this track. Hard to fault on his best form and must be respected. VINO SOLO (3) impressed when successful on debut over 1609m at this track (Turf) two-and-a-half weeks ago. Likely improver with bright prospects again. JES SEE ME (7) finished fourth over 1207m at Presque Isle Downs (Synthetic) at his most recent appearance on October 13. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.

Returns from a 39-day let-up. At the latest run didn't finish the race at this track December 6 over 1609m. Before that ran last in a small field at Aqueduct in LR on November 1 over 1609m, 33 len behind My World with 54.5kg at $23.69. Can do much better.

Second-up. First-up after four months won by a 0.3 len at this track December 19 over 1609m defeating Giulio Cesare with 54kg at $6.20. Previously second-up ran last in a small field at Delaware Park on August 15 over 1106m, 15 len behind Freely Held with 54kg at $6.10. This is tougher so prefer others.

Returns from a 39-day let-up. Last start won by 6 len at this track December 6 over 1408m defeating Moral Power carrying 54kg at $2.30. The start before that 6th of 9 at Gulfstream Park on November 8 over 1408m, 12 len behind Langvad carrying 54.5kg at $8.90. Would be better placed in something easier.
