Tampa Bay Downs Race 9 - Race 9 - Allowance Optional Claiming
FLOOD ZONE (5) is a promising type who hasn't raced since finishing 8 lengths away in fifth over 1609m in Listed grade at Colonial Downs (Dirt) on August 9. Best form puts him right in this. LASTABITLONGER (8) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1609m at Gulfstream Park Turf, beaten 10 lengths. This doesn't look as hard so he is a key runner. MR. PENNY PINCHER (10) was comfortably accounted for when sixth last time out over 1408m at this track, beaten 9 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including two wins. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. GIANLUCA BE LUCKY (4) held on well to finish third last time out over 1646m at this track (Dirt) after leading for much of the way. Well-placed and worth including.
