Gulfstream Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Maiden Claiming
COME ON POPPI (2) First up from a break of 9 weeks and kept boxing on when 2nd beaten by 3 1/2L first up last preparation here. Have to respect the recent stable form. Massive hope. TIGER EYE PEARL (4) Caught the eye when 3rd beaten by 2 3/4L last time at the track. Has a great burst of speed late. Winnable race. KISS ME FOR LUCK (5) Was found wanting late when 4th last start at Tampa Bay Downs. Expecting to settle positively. Could give a show. MORE APPLAUSE (6) Ran past a few when 5th last run here. Should muster plenty of early speed. Include in chances.

At $14.00 was getting tired late when 4th last start at Tampa Bay Downs. Should muster plenty of early toe. Capable type.

Odds of $18.00 and picked up some late ground when 5th last run at this venue. Has plenty of early speed. Has some claims.
