A PRIMERA VISTA (5) was safely held when resuming from a lay-off behind Waskesiu in the G3 Florida Oaks at this track (Turf) over 1m1/2f, beaten 6 lengths into tenth. Should camp just off the leaders. Will prove tough to beat. NIKITIS (8) is a promising type who hasn't raced since finishing 5 lengths away in fifth over 7f in the G3 Forward Gal Stakes at Gulfstream Park (Dirt) on February 3 which was the only run of that prep. Has scored when resuming from a lay-off before. Likely to feature. REFUGIADA (1) was prominent at the bend and finished third last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 1m at Gulfstream Park (Turf), beaten 2 lengths. Facing a tougher assignment but she is good enough to take this out. ESCAPE ROOM (6) finished eighth, beaten 9 lengths, when tackling a turf track for the first time last start at Gulfstream Park over 7½f. Solid last time and a bold showing is expected.
