Gulfstream Park Race 3

Starter Optional Claiming

Stake: $63,338

I'M SAM (4) is close to a win after a string of minor placings, the latest when third over 1609m at Gulfstream Park Turf (Turf) when he was always up in the leading division. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. CAMIGOL (6) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing second and beaten only 1.5 lengths over 1673m at this track (Synthetic) after being in the firing line on the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. ADVANCED (1) did well to score at this track two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when in contention on the corner before finishing second over 1609m at Gulfstream Park Turf, beaten 2 lengths. Enjoys a drop in grade so he can play a big role. ENCHANTING TALE (3) did a great job to score by 1.5 lengths over this course and distance when resuming from a break last time out. Looks well placed so expect another big run.

Third race start. Promising on debut got back early 4th in a small field at Gulfstream Park on April 19 over 1207m, 16 len behind One Hundred Kings with 55.5kg at $12.90. Went for a break before returning won by 1.5 len at this track June 26 over 1710m defeating Apache One Six with 55.5kg at $5.30. Strips fitter and is an excellent winning chance.

Comes here off a 58-day let-up. Most recently 2nd in a small field at this track on June 6 over 1673m, 1.5 len behind Hands Of Time carrying 55kg at $6.40. Before that 6th of 8 at Gulfstream Park on May 15 over 1207m, 7 len behind Send Cash with 55kg at $12.30. Nice effort last time so worth following up.
