Alright passengers, spring is officially here. It’s time to get back to the daily grind. Key horses every race day at Gulfstream with a #gullet shot video. When turf racing gets back to New York and Keeneland, the train will head back up north. We don’t know what the rest of 2023 will bring, besides lot’s of loot from the generous Ductor. Skip.

Gulfstream Park Race 1: 5 Furlongs. (Turf) Clm 35000b

#8 Discreet Tune (4/1) – This horse returns to his preferred turf surface after making a middle move on synthetic off the bench last time. He’s run multiple turf sprints that would beat this field and he’s dropping to his lowest career level today. Trainer David Carlos is 18% with a +$0.70 ROI with runners 2nd off the layoff this year. Don’t sing about this horse too loud passengers, we need this morning line to hold.

Race 5: 1 1/16 Mile. (Turf) F.Clm 20000b

#11 Boston Princess (8/1) – The favorites are nothing special in this race, so the Ductor is looking for a price. This filly is stepping up in class after a nice win last time, where she wore down the favorite. In her race two back, it looks like she was easily beaten by the morning line favorite in this race #2 French Franc (5/2), but she got completely shut off in the stretch and that effort can be excused. The outside draw is not ideal, but she’s the upside horse in this field and will be a juicy price.

Race 7: 1 Mile. (Turf) OC 25000n1x

*Gullet Shot of the Day #2 James Aloysius (6/1) – This colt has been fickle, making it to the track only twice in his first two years. However, he’s shown major talent in those two races, including a 2nd on debut at Saratoga. He draws well here and looks to get a nice ground saving trip in race with a quick pace to stalk. Gargan is 27% with a +$0.03 ROI this year with runners off the bench and Saez returning to the irons is a positive sign that James Aloysius is ready to run.
