Tampa Bay Downs Race 9 - Race 9 - Claiming
BRING ME A CHECK (3) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at this track (Turf) over 1609m, beaten 0.8 lengths. Good record at this journey with four wins and nine minor placings from 16 starts and looks a top chance. PRINCE OF AYRSHIRE (7) finished out of the money two starts back then he was never in contention and was beaten 2.75 lengths when eighth in a 1710m contest at this track four weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. FOUR TOP (9) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 4.5 lengths away in sixth last time out over 1673m at Gulfstream Park All Weather after being prominent at the bend. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. OLD FLAG (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1710m at this track, beaten 10 lengths into seventh. Capable of featuring prominently.

Recent form sound. At the latest run made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 9 at this track on January 24 over 1609m, 0.8 len behind Eldest Son with 54kg at $4.40. The race before that won by a 0.3 len at this track December 17 over 1609m defeating Ready To Fly carrying 55kg at $3.30. With a little improvement can take this out.

Most recently tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 7 at Tampa Bay Downs on January 25 over 1408m, 4.5 len behind Bang A Rang with 54.5kg at $12.30. The start before that 3rd in a small field at Tampa Bay Downs on January 14 over 1646m, 10 len behind Passioned carrying 54kg at $5.20. Doesn't look good enough to threaten the top few.
