Tampa : Race 5 is RadioStPete Race of Dayl

By Bob Bauer

Tampa Bay Downs has nine races on tap for Wednesday.  First post is scheduled for 12:15 PM.  Conditions are fast and good.

Today's play is in Race 5, Post 3:17. RadioStPete   online live coverage, including legendary announcer Richard Grunder will start at 3:15.

A wide-open field of older Fillies and Mares will go a mile on the lawn under $16,000 Starter Allowance conditions.

There is a racetrack saying "beware of the stranger" and we have SENSIBLE MYTH (4) shipping in and trying the Tampa turf for the first time. This six-year old Mare was a Stakes winner during the summer of 2020. She went to the Fairgrounds in January, catching a pair of events that were rained off the grass. She finally got back were she belongs on March 13, finishing third at a mile with foes similar to these. Jose Ferrer, a veteran grass rider takes the mount. She has beaten better in the past and may be ready for a huge effort here.

THE BET  $10 to win on SENSIBLE MYTH (4) and a $2 exacta box with ANTALYA (3) and CATS OUT THE BAG (5) 3,4,5.        Total Bet $22 GOOD LUCK!!

PREVIOUS RESULTS  4/11 Racing was cancelled due to severe weather. The bankroll remains at $701.50 after starting ar $1,000.

* Going into Wednesday, jockeys Antonio Gallardo and Samy Camacho each have 89 wins and  are tied for first place in the Tampa Bay meet,

Camacho has six mounts and Gallardo has five mounts on Wednesday.

Wednesday is the 77th day of Tampa Bay's 89-day meet.
