Tom Collins analyses the credentials of four favourites in the US
Just Shoot Already
6.30 Tampa Bay Downs
SP forecast 2-1
Winless in eight starts, Just Shoot Already has been sent off favourite on three of his last four outings but has failed to deliver after showing bright early pace. Stamina is a worry over this 7f trip, as is the fact that he has placed on five occasions.
Conclusion Wouldn't want to get involved at the forecast price.
Maui Jane
7.15 Will Rogers Downs
SP forecast 2-1
Winner of a weak maiden claimer at this venue last April, Maui Jane wasn't sighted in two subsequent starts before having a couple of months off the track. She goes well fresh but has drawn wide in gate nine and her form isn't great.
Conclusion Definitely one to take on.
Spectacular Temper
9.15 Will Rogers Downs
SP forecast 2-1
Three-year-old filly who gets a healthy 6lb weight-for-age allowance from most of her chief market rivals in this field. Spectacular Temper represents a top jockey/trainer combination in David Cabrera and Karl Broberg and lost her maiden tag when last seen on a sloppy track. Drawn in gate ten of ten.
Conclusion Poor draw and the form of her latest win is questionable. It looks a race to leave alone.
US Army Corps
9.30 Tampa Bay Downs
SP forecast 7-5
Well-bred son of War Front out of a Montjeu mare, US Army Corps is without a victory in four career outings but looks to have been found the perfect opportunity by trainer Shug McGaughey, whose runners at Tampa Bay Downs in the last month have recorded form figures of 2212111.
Conclusion Strongest form in the book and should continue the trainer's red-hot streak at the track.
