HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – Gulfstream Park will ring in the New Year on a high note with a pair of stakes for 3-year-olds, the $165,000 Dania Beach and $165,000 Cash Run. The co-features highlight a special 10-race holiday program here Wednesday that also begins the five-program-per-week racing schedule continuing through the end of the meet on March 30. The Dania Beach lured a field of eight to go a mile on turf, weather permitting, topped by the Mark Casse-trained duo of Dream On, off a fifth-place finish in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf, and Mi Bago, a popular and very easy winner of the Pulpit Stakes in his 2-year-old finale here Nov. 29. Dream On, with Irad Ortiz Jr. taking the call for the first time, figures to go postward a solid favorite in his local debut after setting the pace through midstretch before weakening to finish 2 1/4 lengths behind Henri Matisse in the one-mile Juvenile Turf. In his previous start, Dream On ran third after also leading to midstretch in the Grade 1 Summer Stakes at Woodbine. :: Play Gulfstream Park with confidence!

Looking back, speed didn’t hold up real great at Del Mar on the turf for the few days they ran there during Breeders’ Cup, so I think it was a tall task for him. We gave him a little breather, and he’s come back training very well.” Mi Bago was purchased privately by Casse for owner Gary Barber after winning his first start over the main track this summer at Colonial Downs. He’s gotten even better since switching to the grass to win the Algonquin Stakes on Oct. 5 at Woodbine. In the Pulpit, Mi Bago sprinted clear right from the start and widened his advantage down the lane, drawing off by five lengths over Hit That Review and Bucaro, both of whom also were entered in the Dania Beach. “I’ve always felt like [Mi Bago] was a grass horse,” Casse said. “He’s a great-moving horse who just kind of skips across the ground, and his last win was very impressive. I would think he’ll be on the lead again on Wednesday. I would like to see Dream On learn to settle a little bit, so I don’t see the two of them going at it.” Along with Hit That Review and Bucaro, the Dania Beach lineup will include I Know I Know, Nothingsubtle, and last-out Churchill Downs maiden winner Maui Strong. Cash Run Stakes The Cash Run will be run at a mile on the main track, with the stakes winner Andrea and her Saffie Joseph Jr.-trained stablemate Paradise City topping a seven-horse lineup that also features the stakes-placed Five G, Yellow, Unchained Elaine, and Fallon. Andrea will seek to regain the form that saw her dominate the one-mile Hallandale Beach by 7 3/4 lengths as the overwhelming 3-5 favorite here Sept. 14. She has been a disappointment, however, in two subsequent starts, finishing a non-threatening sixth in the Myrtlewood Stakes at Keeneland and fifth as the 8-5 favorite last month at Tampa Bay Downs in the Sandpiper. Both those races were run at six furlongs. :: Get Gulfstream Park Clocker Reports from Mike Welsch and the Clocker Team.

The one at Tampa was atrocious,” Joseph said. “Hopefully, stretching her back out to a mile will help her, although I’m not sure what to expect coming off a race like that. We plan to put her back on the lead going a mile again. Maybe that will get her back in her zone.” Paradise City won her maiden at first asking going 6 1/2 furlongs here Sept. 6. She then shipped to Keeneland to finish fourth as the 4-5 favorite trying to stretch to 1 1/16 miles under first-level allowance conditions six weeks later. In her most recent start, Paradise City ran against males while adding blinkers for the first time, chasing the pace before fading to finish fourth behind the highly regarded Cool Intentions. She will take the blinkers off again for the Cash Run. “I couldn’t get a race for her to fill for fillies, so I just put her in against the colts the last time and I thought she ran okay,” Joseph said of Paradise City’s last start. “I put a small blinker on her last time but didn’t really see much difference in it or anything that would make me want to keep them on again.” Five G will return to the main track and go back to one turn after making each of her last two starts around two turns on grass. She is coming off a strong effort finishing second in the Tepin on Nov. 17 at Aqueduct. She held the lead until late stretch before being run down late and beaten a half-length by the still undefeated Laurelin. :: Want to learn more about handicapping and wagering?
