Tampa Bay Downs Race 7 - Race 7 - Maiden Claiming
THIRSTED (5) Peaked on the run when 4th last run around here. Displays good tactical speed. Cipriano Gil and Michael V Simone are usually competitive when they team up. Has genuine claims in this race. WATTS UP BUDDY (9) First time at the races 3yo by Higher Power for trainer Kathleen Oconnell. Israel O Rodriguez is a suitable booking. Betting is the best guide. THIS BEAU KNOWS (4) Ran home into 2nd last time at this track and promising career start. Has early speed and positions nicely. Can get the job done. UNDERTAKER (7) Made some ground when 5th last run here and going back up in distance. Should come to hand quickly. Sound chances.

Jumped at $23.00 and inched into 5th last run at Gulfstream Park and drawn well. Facing a rise in trip. Won't find this easy.

Odds of $14.00 and disappointing display when 7th last time at this track. Struggling this preparation with no placings from 9 attempts. Hard to entertain.

At $6.50 closed off nicely when 4th last start around here and having second race start. Will be trying to topple them late. Do not dismiss entirely.

First run back from a break. Was $18.00 and not up to scratch when 9th last start at the track but fitter for debut run. Rising in distance. This is a tough race.
