Gulfstream Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Mdn Special Weight
PALACE JOY (14) Initial appearance 2yo by Palace Pier for Saffie A Joseph Jr. Jockey Micah J Husbands is an asset. Keep your eye on the market. CHEERS TO YOU (4) Nicholas Palmer 2yo by Essential Quality having first race appearance. Betting is the best guide. PERSUASIVE LADY (9) Beau J Chapman 2yo by Mind Control having first start. Watch the market moves. CARAMEL BLUE (12) Couldn't stay in touch when 4th last start here. The wide draw shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early speed. Edwin Gonzalez is a strong choice aboard. Worth strong consideration. Something for the Multiples: PRETTY PITA (11)

At $10.00 mediocre display when 8th last start around here but fitter for debut run. Does take a while to get into stride. Going up in distance. Will require a bold run.

Started at $4.00 and tailed off to finish 4th last start here. Has the speed to overcome the wide alley. Jockey Edwin Gonzalez is a plus. Good chance of taking this out.

Back from a break. At $23.00 inched into 5th last start at this track and having second race start. Going over extra ground. Prefer a return to something a lot easier.
