Gulfstream Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Claiming
RUSE (8) last appeared six-and-a-half weeks ago over 1673m at Gulfstream Park All Weather when he finished fourth. This is his first run for the Martin Drexler stable. Makes plenty of appeal in the new surrounds. JAYHAWK (5) has switched yards since finishing seventh seven weeks ago over 1710m at this track. Worth serious consideration. JIM'S HOPE (2) was a winner over 1609m at this track (Turf) last time out, dropping out early before coming home with a powerful run to score by one length. One of the main contenders. MYTHICAL MAN (3) built on a nice second two starts back at this track (Turf) with a win as public elect over 1710m at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic) six weeks ago, getting home by 2.75 lengths. Looks well placed so expect another big run.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. Comes off a 49 day let-up. Resuming ran last of 9 at Woodbine All Weather on December 6 over 1710m, 18 len behind Ever Dangerous carrying 56kg at $11.30. Second run from a spell was well back until straightening; raced back then made ground from the turn; won by 1.0 len at this track January 11 over 1609m defeating Bluff carrying 56kg at $15.30. Found his best form now. Will take beating.

Racing well recently. Returns from a 44-day let-up. Most recently 4th of 11 at Gulfstream Park All Weather on January 16 over 1673m, 3 len behind Cruise The Nile with 55kg at $15.10. The start before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 11 at this track on December 6 over 1609m, 1.0 len behind Walley World with 55kg at $10. One of the prime contenders in a most suitable contest.
