Tampa Bay Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - Maiden Claiming
ELSIE'S SMILE (5) returned from a spell four weeks ago when she was prominent at the bend before being beaten 6 lengths into fourth over 1207m at this track. Strips fitter and can feature. GRENACHE (6) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.3 lengths from the winner in third over 1308m at this track after being in contention on the turn. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. NENAS STAR (2) returns after five-and-a-half months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a sixth over 1006m at Colonial Downs (Dirt). Nicely placed and can get off the mark. R SKYLINE (3) was beaten 9 lengths into fifth over 1207m at this track last time out. Finds a nice race and can make amends.

Second-up. First-up after four months raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 9 at this track on January 30 over 1207m, 6 len behind Critical Magic carrying 54.5kg at $3.90.
