Tampa Bay Downs Race 2 - Race 2 - Maiden Special Weight
BOD BEACH (2) is a eight-start maiden who was in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second at the latest appearance over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Should park just off the speed. Likely to feature. ACE FROM SPACE (3) is a three-year-old colt at the races for the first time. From an elite family that includes a G1 victor, being by Into Mischief from Glinda The Good. A product of the strong juvenile stable of B H Cox. Promising type who is one to keeps tabs on in the betting. MAYKOMOTION (1) raced once in the maiden preparation when fifth at Gulfstream Park (Dirt) over 1408m back on December 13. Top-three chance with that run under his belt. ROYAL MERIT (4) was well in the market on debut last time out and ran well but found one better over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Among the chances.
