Superfecta Sunday at Gulfstream, Segundo Intento

Superfecta Sunday arrives as we take a look at what could be considered a Derby prep over the grass.

Gulfstream Park Race 7 {Palm Beach~G3~1 1/8 mile~TURF~3 year old~Stakes}
A delightful longer Turf route will unfold with a small field of six.  There are four in this race that are Triple Crown nominees.  Despite the short field there is a full balance of running styles represented.  It should be a great race.  Let's try to fit together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta Box ticket.

#3 Dullahan (Desormeaux / Romans) returns to racing after a 120 day layoff.  This Triple Crown nominee will be looking to score the victory with two fine last out speed numbers before his winter break.  He has posted three superb workouts, has a strong foundation of five races under his saddle cloth, and should love the additional real estate.

#1 Howe Great (J. Velazquez / Motion) will lead the field with his speed and could control the pace on to the wire.  He holds the highest last out speed number, a four race progression that includes three wins in a row, and has put in three wholesome workouts.

#2 Scorcher (Castanon / Garaffolo) scratched out of a 50K Optional Claimer on Friday (3/9) opting for this high caliber race.  He has gone the distance twice with one victory.  We had him among our selections on Friday; today we toss the Bronze Horseshoe to him.  This colt sired by Kitten's Joy has had a couple of decent last out speed numbers, is working a four race progression, and has put in one peaking workout.  He could surprise.
$2 SHOW.

#5 Coalport (Leparoux / Catalano) is another sired by Kitten's Joy.  This fine colt holds the third highest last out speed number prior to a 60 day freshening, is working a two race progression, and has put in a fabulous four peaking workout tab.  Is ready, willing, and able.

10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)

#3 Dullahan  +  #1 Howe Great  +  #2 Scorcher  +  #5 Coalport.
