Tampa Bay Downs Race 7 - Columbia S. Stakes
ALPYLAND (5) went forward last start over 1710m in stakes class at Gulfstream Park Turf (Turf) and held on well for third, beaten one length. Won't find this as tough so he is a major player. PROTON (2) resumes after a break of three-and-a-half months. Looking to emulate his debut win over 1106m at Colonial Downs Turf to kick off last prep. Likely to take beating. KNOTY KNICKS (1) lines up on the back of a 2.5 lengths fourth over 1710m at Gulfstream Park Turf. Profiles to run well. CONGRESSIONAL (3) was a winner over 1710m at Gulfstream Park Turf (Turf) last time, racing on the pace before getting the upper hand and scoring by 0.1 lengths. Should give a great sight.

Was well in the market at debut, won raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a 0.1 len at Gulfstream Park Turf January 17 over 1710m defeating Comprehensive with 55.5kg at $4.90. Well-placed to keep the 100% record intact.

Yet to taste defeat in two starts. At very long odds on debut, favourite; won by 2.75 len at this track December 26 over 1609m defeating Landing Force carrying 54kg at $61.10. Last start favourite; won by 1.0 len at this track January 14 over 1710m defeating Knick's Honor with 55.5kg at $4.20. Unlikely to threaten.
