Western Fair Raceway Race 5

Race 5

Prize Money: $5,653

SHANGHAIGOLD (3) won at Flamboro Downs two runs ago but couldn't repeat the dose at his latest appearance over 1609m at Flamboro Downs, beaten 6 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Meets a comparable field and he can get the job done. HES GOT SWAGGER (2) has been knocking on the door for a while then went close again last time over 1609m at Mohawk Park, finishing second and just 0.8 metres from the winner. No excuses from this advantageous draw. This doesn't look as hard so he is a major player. LIVIN LARGE (5) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 1609m at Mohawk Park last time out. JAFAR DU LAC (7) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Mohawk Park.

Fair run when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind St Lads Beat It at Flamboro Downs over 1609m in a G on March 5 at $4.15. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Bettorholdontight at Mohawk Park over 1609m in a G on March 9 at $6.85. Sure to play a major role.

Failed to impress last start; 5th over 1609m at Flamboro Downs was 6th- at the bell, beaten 6 m by St Lads Beat It (1:55.30) in G on March 12 at $28.40. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 2.75 m as favourite at Flamboro Downs (2:00.20) beating Machalko in G on March 5 at $2.75 at the bell was leading. Should be right in the finish.
