Tampa Bay Downs Race 7 - Race 7 - Maiden Claiming
BLACK FLY (3) comes off a solid 3rd at Tampa Bay Downs over this trip, beaten 3.5L, and looks well placed in this company. KATHLEEN'S DERBY (6) was 5th at this track and distance last start and had previously run 3rd here, suggesting she can be competitive again. TRANQUILA RUBY (7) was 4th over 1646m last time and has been holding form around this level. MEGOWAN STREET (1) and NEW WAY (5) both finished well back in the same recent race as Black Fly and need to improve. LADY VERSAILLES (11) has no recent form available. Black Fly (3) and Kathleen's Derby (6) rate as the key chances based on recent placings.

Five-year-old mare by First Dude for Beverly Jeanette Curto. Draws wide in barrier 11 with Carlos Eduardo Rojas aboard. Needs to show more on exposed profile but not without hope.
