Thursday's Best Bet: Miss T Too clears the field at Gulfstream
Thursday’s 8th race from Gulfstream Park is an optional claiming event for fillies and mares dashing six furlongs on the main track (Post Time 4:11 p.m. EST).
No. 3 MISS T TOO (3-1) owns dangerous early speed and might be fitter in her second start after a long layoff. She cruised with similar race spacing September 2020 and she graduated at Gulfstream Park earlier that same year.
No. 6 Music City Star (5-1) just missed in a similar local spot Nov. 18 and split an eight-horse field in the Sugar Swirl (G3) Dec. 18. She drew outside the other speed.
No. 5 Four Graces (7-5) makes her first start in more than six months and this is her first non-stakes start since she defeated Miss T Too in an optional claiming extended sprint under the Twin Spires May 2020. This is her shortest career test.
