Turf Paradise Race 3 - Race 3 - Maiden Claiming
BOSSING MO (2) brings the most consistent recent form, including a second at this distance two starts back at Santa Anita. NOAH'S GOLD (5) was runner-up two runs ago and is on the quick back-up, while OSWALD (6) has also placed at the mile and holds a fitness edge. T'S HEATER (4) has been around the mark with a recent placing and is proven at Turf Paradise. This shapes as an open maiden with several lightly raced types looking to break through.
