Charlie's Wish won her Tapeta debut in the Ginger Punch after the race was switched from turf to synthetic.

Charlie’s Wish, one of two stakes winners for trainer David Fawkes last Saturday at Gulfstream Park, won her synthetic-track debut in the $100,000 Ginger Punch when the race was moved from turf to Tapeta.

“The fact that she switched over so easy to the Tapeta, it opens a whole other door,” Fawkes said. “So, that was nice. She’s very, very honest. She always tries, turf, dirt. We’ll see what comes up next.
