Tampa Bay Downs Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming

THUNDERING (3) was an impressive winner last time over 1811m at this track (Turf), leading throughout and putting 3 lengths on his rivals. Sure to run well again. ZABO (4) returns from a layoff of four-and-a-half months. Scored over 1710m at Woodbine Inner to launch the last campaign. Should be hard to stop. READY TO FLY (1) has put together a couple of wins at this track, the latest on March 21 over 2213m when he got home by 0.3 lengths. Goes up a rung or two but he is capable of running another bold race. RIGEL (7) hasn't been far away lately, beaten 0.3 lengths at his most recent outing when second over 1609m at this track (Turf). Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. In the mix.
