Frank Carulli's Daily Picks
Tampa Bay Downs - Race #1
Tampa Bay Downs - Race #3
Tampa Bay Downs - Race #4
Tampa Bay Downs - Race #1
| #5 DEVILMENT (7-2) | Hit board in 9 of 20 starts, factored until stretch in latest, distance should suit. |
| #2 FLY COMMANDER (7-5) | Ran well at Tampa to start the year for $30k, strictly the one to beat. |
| #4 KUKU (8-1) | Showed some versatility in improved third try with Lasix last out. |
| Race Summary | The field is a combined 13/0-1-1 at today’s distance. DEVILMENT at least has several in-the-money finishes sprinting and routing on his resume. He was 3-wide most of the way from post 10 at Gulfstream last out, made a run at the leader on the final turn but flattened out in the lane as the 1-to-5 winner passed by. Bet to win and place and play a 2-4-5 exacta box. |
| #1 GOLD STAMP (5-1) | Second the last three times she sprinted on a fast main track for higher tags. |
| #5 MI BELLA GENIO (9-5) | Failed at odds-on in lone try for $16k, barn is 25-percent with layoff types. |
| #2 ADIOS TIPSY (8-1) | Ranged up 4-wide, out-dueled next-out winner Paddy’s Gift (2-7, $48k). |
| Race Summary | GOLD STAMP, second the last three times she sprinted on a fast main track, broke her maiden on turf, rallied for third in a fast-paced grass sprint and ‘offered up a mild kick’ last out while well-beaten on the Aqueduct lawn by My Anticipation (2-7, $103k). Bet to win and place and play a 1-2-5 exacta box. |
| #3 DUNDIE (2-1) | Lightly-raced 5yo likes to win, sheds 13 pounds on the class drop, can top $100k. |
| #2 ROLLING ON (5-2) | Led long way on Gulfstream dirt two back, can use speed well in here, too. |
| #1 ELUSIVE D’ORO (4-1) | Six-figure 6F earner plays to a steady beat, with several seconds to show for it. |
| Race Summary | DUNDIE returns to Tampa, where he won back-to-back sprints for higher tags last winter. He rallied to finish third in his most recent start, 1-1/4 lengths behind Point Liam, who rallied to win in a $10,000 optional claiming race next out. Bet to win and place and play 3-1 and 3-2 exactas. |
