Tampa Bay Downs Race 9

Maiden Special Weight

Prize Money: $80,058

NEO ZAPPER (7) took advantage of the good draw and raced on the pace last start before tiring to finish sixth, beaten 11 lengths, over 1710m at this track (Turf). Sure to be prominent from the outset. OBRA PRIMA (2) is a three-year-old colt by Quality Road out of Paulistinha on debut for the Chad C Brown stable. Should acquit himself well. Keep an eye out for any positive market movement. GRAY OBSESSION (5) was safely held on debut last start, finishing 16 lengths behind the winner in sixth over 1207m at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt). Plenty of scope for improvement. One of the main contenders. MO ACTION (6) resumes from a spell of three months. Could only manage to finish sixth at the latest run over 1710m at this track (Turf). Has ability and must be included in calculations.

Most recently sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 10 at this track on March 27 over 1710m, 11 len behind Arizona Territory carrying 54kg at $6.80. The race before that raced on speed throughout when 3rd of 11 at this track on March 6 over 1609m, 6 len behind Instability with 54kg at $14. Deserves another chance.
