Gulfstream and Turfway Away

Friday brings us two competitive allowance races at Gulfstream Park and Turfway Park.

Gulfstream Race 7 {5 furlongs~Turf~4 year old Up~fillie/mares~Allowance}
A very competitve field assembles for this turf sprint.  Easy Ashley (Castanon / Ward) has a slight edge in this race.  She shows solid speed numbers across the board and is 100% in the money over five races at the distance.  It also helps that she posted the highest last out speed number with four good workouts in preparation.  Argyle Pink (Leparoux / Kenneally) looks great moving from dirt to turf.  She has posted a decent last out speed number with two solid workouts.  Allaboutimage(NZ) (C. Velasquez / Divito) looks like she will take a step forward off a decent layoff.  She shows a decent speed number at the distance and three peaking workouts. Those that will have a chance fo some purse money are Pina Colada (Maragh / Nihei), Obequious (Marquez / Gray), and Shimmering Tina (Castro / Hartman).  Let's give Gulfstream a whirl.

$2 SHOW:  #5 Easy Ashley
$2 SHOW:  #1 Argyle Pink
10 CENT Superfecta:  #5 Easy Ashley / #1 Argyle Pink / #8 Allaboutimage(NZ) / #2 Pina Colada, #9 Obsequious, #3 Shimmering Tina.

Turfway Race 11 {1 mile~3 year old Up~fillies/mares}
It is going to be a cold one in Florence, Kentucky so this one may not go off.  Post time is estimated to be 9:59 pm (ET).  We will handicap it nonetheless.  Deputy Darling (Pompell / Maker) looks to do well wih a terrific workout, a four race progression, and a decent record at the distance.  Champagn Jane (Creed / Pellegrini) shows the top speed number last out and has shown improvement over the last six races she has run.  Like her chances in this spot.  Winners Get Even (O. Mojica / Sims) is strong at this distance and has two superb workouts going into this race.  Simone (S. Gonzalez / Bergin) loves this Turfway all weather track and shows the best peaking workout tab.  Let's give Turfway a try.

$2 SHOW:  #1 Deputy Darling
$2 SHOW:  #5 Champagn Jane
10 CENT Superfecta: #1 Deputy Darling / #5 Champagn Jane / #6 Winners Get Even / #13 Simone.
