Tampa Bay Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance Optional Claiming
WINE CANDY (2) just missed last time when 0.3 lengths away in second at this track (Dirt) over 1106m. Sure to feature again. UNWRITTEN RULE (7) was far from disgraced after being in contention on the turn to finish 1.3 lengths away in second last start over 1207m at this track. That followed a win on debut at this track. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. RAMAJAY (3) led throughout last time over 1207m at Colonial Downs (Dirt) and scored a comfortable win. Positive ride expected again and should give a good sight. BEST MINET YET (4) showed good speed and fought on for third over 1408m in stakes class at this track (Dirt) last time. Among the top-three contenders.
