Tampa Bay Downs Race 6 - Race 6 - Claiming
BLAZING AFFAIR (2) On a short turnaround. Had a comfortable win by just short of 8L last time here and has a positive draw. Placed at every start this campaign. Fights on bravely so consider. STYLET (7) Nice run when 2nd last time at the track but competing at a higher level of competition. Expecting to settle positively. Been in the placegetters each start this campaign. Will be around the mark at odds. SWEET HAZELY (1) Produced an eye catching run when 2nd beaten by 2 1/2L last run at this track and has drawn to do little work. Facing formidable rivals. Can surprise and by no means out of it. SAHARA KARA (8) First up after a 70 week break. Struggled with the pace when 7th last start at Arapahoe Park. First appearance for a new trainer. Should get going late. Knockout chance in this.

Good effort to finish 2nd beaten by 2 1/2L last run at this venue and gets the perfect alley. Jockey Cipriano Gil and trainer Juan Carlos Avila link well together. Has some claims.

Backs up quickly. Put a gap on the rest when winning by almost 8L last time at this track and drawn nicely. Holds a major chance.

First up from a spell of 28 weeks. Disappointing run when 7th last start at Colonial Downs but matched against a less competitive field. One for the place and exotics betting.
