Loriloupies a danger from the rail in Gulfstream feature
HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – The final week of the fall meet opens with an eight-race program on Thursday topped by a $53,000 allowance dash for fillies and mares that lured a field of seven led by Loriloupies, who exits an easy 4 1/2-length victory against lesser allowance opposition two months earlier.
Loriloupies will break from the rail under Edgard Zayas and figures to be part of a fairly lively pace that could also include Music City Star and Compensate.
Should the Saffie Joseph Jr.-trained Loriloupies falter from early pace pressure, Starship Nala may prove the main beneficiary, having finished third behind stablemate Helping Lisa D going a mile over a sloppy track under similar allowance conditions on Oct. 22. In her previous start, Starship Nala finished a game second behind another member of trainer Steve Dwoskin’s stable, the 34-1 Starship Bonita, in the restricted Sheer Drama Stakes on Sept. 11.
