US Racing Betting tips: Our trader previews Gulfstream Park
Gulfstream Park’s Spring Meet begins with a nine-race card which is live on Sky Sports Racing on Thursday evening.
Ahead of the card, our trader Ian Rozzier has taken a look at the form, including jockeys, trainers and horses to watch…
Leading Jockey
Luis Saez was in sparkling form last weekend as he came agonisingly close to landing the Gulfstream Park Championship Meet Jockeys Championship.
Saez was eventually beaten 115-113 by Irad Ortiz JR but is very much the man they all must beat with Ortiz JR still on the sidelines.
Luis Saez rides: Speedy Hans (6.00), Markistan (6.30), Cat Lady (7.31), Hartling (8.34), Etana (9.05), Awsum Roar (9.36) & Limetini (10.07)
Leading Trainer
Todd Pletcher landed his 16th Gulfstream Park Championship Meet Trainers Championship on Saturday finishing with 48 winners from 210 starts.
He starts the Spring Meet with three runners, two of which are ridden by Luis Saez.
Todd Pletcher runners: Cat Lady (7.31), Assume (9.05) & Limetini (10.07)
Horse To Watch
Hartling has won her last four races and has leading claims to land the five-timer.
Michael Pino’s filly switches back to turf, but that shouldn’t be an inconvenience given how she won on it in January, and the booking of Luis Saez looks very significant given he could have ridden Day’s Of Spring.
