Flamboro Downs Race 3

Race 3

Prize Money: $5,459

OPULENT DRAGON (5) finished third at Mohawk Park two runs ago before finishing eighth at his latest appearance over 1609m at Mohawk Park, beaten 13 metres. This should be an easier assignment so he is in the right race to find winning form. REDLAND WRANGLER (1) finished fourth last start, beaten 8 metres at this track over 1609m. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. LEADUNIT (2) was responsible for a better effort last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track. Should run a big race. TRIDENT SEELSTER (8) is worth some thought based on his second over 1609m at this track two runs ago.
