Turf Paradise Race 1

Maiden Claiming

Stake: $17,872

BETZ CARTEL (2) was in the firing line on the bend and progressed nicely last start to finish a close third over 320m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Has the talent to figure prominently. RR FAVORITE POWER (4) ran a much better race at his second outing last start to finish second over 274m at this track after being prominent at the corner. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. BD ROYAL ANGEL (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she was always well out of her ground over 320m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths into ninth. Finds an easier assignment and can turn things around. PS GRAND CARTEL (3) was beaten 4 lengths into fifth over 274m at this track last time out. Capable of featuring prominently.
