Gulfstream Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Maiden Optional Claiming
SHIP SERVE (8) is a two-start maiden who returned last time and finished fourth at this track (Turf) over 1006m, beaten 5.5 lengths. Fitter for that outing and is a great chance to break his maiden status. DO BETTER (7) made his debut last start at a big quote but defied the market to grab second, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 1006m at this track (Turf). Likely improver who is expected to be in the finish. FINDING CANDY (4) was in commission last time out but disappointed in finishing eighth over 1006m at this track (Turf), beaten 17 lengths after he gave away a big start. Expected to feature in the finish this time. AMBASSADOR BLUE (5) is back from a spell of 11 weeks. Closed last prep with a eighth, beaten 12 lengths, over 1710m at this track. Ticks all the right boxes.

Second-up. First start 10th of 12 at Churchill Downs Turf on November 30 over 1006m, 8 len behind Arbiter with 54kg at $13.53. Went for a spell before returning 4th of 8 at this track on February 15 over 1006m, 5.5 len behind Wit Storm carrying 55.5kg at $15.60. Even fitter and is an excellent winning chance.

By Rock Your World out of Kristella on debut. Purchased for USD $ 60,000 (Fasig-Tipton 2024 Kentucky October Yearlings). Sure to be better for this outing.
