SAT - Gulfstream - Full Card

[Bogey]

It doesn't seem they will avoid a wet track today at Hallandale Beach and plays will be slightly adjusted later on. Still, a fun card with plenty of options.


Gulfstream Park - POST SCRATCHES - changes to the late PK4 due to track condition


R1 – MSW 45k (Turf 5F)

#1 Crimson Glory – Filly seems fit to try the boys. Will show speed from the rail.

R2 – Alw 48k N1X

#5 Prime Precision – Should be used underneath in gimmicks. 2ND
#7 Surprise Kiss – Will show some speed, the big question is the mile distance.

R4 – MSW 45k
