Gulfstream Park Race 4

Starter Optional Claiming

Stake: -

MISH (3) Was a comprehensive winner by 3 3/4L last time around here but competing in a higher grade. Change in trainer. Among better hopes. SECRET EMPIRE (5) First up after a break. Was competitive when 3rd last time at Tampa Bay Downs and competing at a lower grade. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Key player. MYTHICAL MAN (7) Faded away to finish 8th last time at this venue. Overlooking the last run but competing at a higher level of competition. Pedro Pena takes a large claim. One of the hopes. ADIOS NOW (1) Didn't threaten when 5th last run at this track. Can show a better performance this time and has drawn to do little work. Will be trying to topple them late. Keep in mind.

At $5.00 gave away some ground when 5th last run around here. Can show a better performance this time and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Follow the money.

Odds of $18.00 and clearly outclassed when 6th last run at this venue but have to respect the form at the trip. Diego A Herrera is a plus. May find these too slick.

Was $18.00 and weakened under pressure when 5th last run around here and up against a higher level of opposition. Racing for a new trainer. Expected to be flashing home. Questions at this level.

At $4.50 looked outclassed when 8th last time at this venue. Overlooking the last run but back to a shorter distance. The large claim from Pedro Pena helps. A threat to the other main hopes.
