Horse Racing picks for Gulfstream Park race track on Wednesday, March 2: Paintbrush looks a picture

Horse Racing

There is plenty of great horse racing action to look forward to across America on Wednesday, including at Gulfstream Park race track. We have been in fine form with our picks for a long time, and our picks are up 233.15 units dating back to last August. All 3 of yesterday’s picks were placed, but it was two 2nds and a 3rd, so we’re aiming to be first past the post today!

Here are 4 runners we expect to perform well today. It’s time to dive in and discuss these potentially profitable plays.

3:05 pm Gulfstream Park (Race 5) – Paintbrush 5/2

Race 5 at Gulfstream Park is a $41,000 Claiming contest over an extended mile on the all-weather track and I like the chances of the filly in stall 6, Paintbrush, who has won her last 2 starts and comes into this in red-hot form.

Those efforts have been in Maiden Claiming and Starter Optional Claiming company, and she has been turning the opposition away with the minimum of fuss, so I wouldn’t want to take her on here.

3:35 pm Gulfstream Park (Race 6) – Into The Sunrise 4/1

Mark Casse’s Into The Sunrise is a very promising gelding who has finished 4th in 2 Grade 2 events in his career and if he turns up close to race fitness then he should be the one to beat in this $62,000 Allowance Optional Claiming event, Race 6.

This is a good race, but this hardy stakes winner is at least Grade 3 class and he has the capable services of Jose Ortiz on board, so he should run a big race after a 4-month break.

4:06 pm Gulfstream Park (Race 7) – Klugman 3/1

The penultimate race at Gulfstream Park is a $54,000 Allowance over an extended 6 furlongs on the dirt and Yes I’m A Beast is likely to be tough to beat, but the highly regarded Klugman can win from stall 3.

This son of Practical Joke was 2nd on his debut at this course before blowing away the opposition by 13 lengths on his second start here last month. He could be quite useful and he is certainly one to keep a close eye on.

4:37 pm Gulfstream Park (Race 8) – Entwine 8/1

A field of 10 is set to line up for the 8th and final race at Gulfstream Park, which is a competitive $36,000 Claiming race over a mile on the turf. The runner who stands out is Entwine, who has yet to win in America but promises to do so in the very near future.

We have yet to see the best of her as she has finished just out of the places in most of her starts in the US, having won when trained in the UK, but she has ability and trainer Mark Hennig is getting to know her, so she can go well in the finale.
