Gulfstream Park Summit of Speed Sat. June 30: Smile Sprint, Princess Rooney, Carry Back. Grid of Week.

.
Saturday, June 30. Gulfstream Park has another big race day in its legendary year-round racing meet. The Summit of Speed is highlighted by the Smile Sprint G3 for all horses and Princess Rooney G2 for fillies and mares. Listed stakes Carry Back and Azalea will be for 3yos and 3yof’s respectively.
.
All eyes and most bets will be on frontrunner X Y Jet, who would be 3 for 3 this year except for a narrow loss in the Dubai Golden Shaheen G1, in which he also finished 2nd in 2016. The 6yo grey gelding has enjoyed much success at Gulfstream Park and will certainly get a warm welcome in his first race back from Dubai.

Mind Your Biscuits edges out X Y Jet for the 2018 Golden Shaheen G1 in Dubai.

Classic Rock will look to have something to say about it as the 2nd choice and is 3 for 3 this year, all at Gulfstream Park. If they get into a duel up front, look for Mo Cash, Reason to Soar, and Mr. Jordan to get in on the action.
.
The Princess Rooney G2 is the most important race of the day since it’s a Breeders Cup Challenge race, meaning the winner gets a free entry into the G1 Filly and Mare Sprint.
.
Curlin’s Approval is a solid favorite, but Ms Locust Point will try to ride an uncontested lead, and My Miss Tapit is good closer. Stormy Embrace is great at this distance and has nice odds to beef up your exotics.
.
Gulfstream Park’s Pick 6 Jackpot is almost at $900k so gamblers should be eager to get in on that action, as the pool will certainly reach $1 million today.
