Peck: Tampa Bay Downs horses to watch for week of Feb. 8

RED CURLS
Trainer: Roy Lerman
Date: Jan. 21, 6th
Finish: 6th by 2 1/4
Beyer: 63
Had a very eventful trip in her debut, steadying early and then lacking room on the turn; she wasn't pushed hard once obviously beaten, but she galloped out nicely past the wire, which bodes well for her return.

GIFT TAX
Trainer: Christophe Clement
Date: Jan. 21, 6th
Finish: 8th by 3 1/2
Beyer: 60
A slow start cost her here, as she was near the back of the pack early, but she made a nice middle move to get into contention before flattening out; deserves another chance against maidens on the turf.

BOLD RESPONSE
Trainer: Joseph Minieri
Date: Jan. 22, 3rd
Finish: 2nd by 3 1/4
Beyer: 59
Did well to get the place behind a sharp Woodbine shipper here in a race that came up faster than par for the class and distance and which has already produced a next-out winner; he won't be 17-1 in his return, as he was here, but he's going to be a handful back against maiden claimers on the grass.
