Grand River Raceway Race 8

Race 8

Prize Money: $8,089

LOVEMYROCKINBIRD (8) finished sixth last start over 1609m at Hanover Raceway, beaten 6 metres, after a good second at Flamboro Downs the run prior. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position. Finds a tougher race but a better run is on the cards. CENTURY ENDEAVOR (3) finished second last start, beaten 4.5 metres at this track over 1609m. Expecting a very good run. DRAGON YOU ALONG (2) is on the radar after his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track a week ago. MAJOR HILL (1) is worth some thought despite his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track on June 15.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4.5 m sixth behind Mythic Gambler at this track over 1609m G last start. Before that was beaten 3.5 metres sixth at Flamboro Downs in HCP G on May 31. Rates highly so expect a bold run.

Fair performance when beaten by 4 m finishing sixth behind Make Me An Offer at this track over 1609m in a G on June 8 at $10.75. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Coldcreekqueso at this track over 1609m in a G on June 15 at $9.60. Progressing well. Top prospects.

Didn't do much at the last run, 8th over 1609m at Georgian Downs was 4th- at the bell, beaten 9 m by Lotto Max (1:55.00) in G on June 9 at $8.70. Before that 9th over 1609m at Mohawk Park, beaten 23 m by Premier First Star (1:52.00) on May 31 at $71.25. Recent form suggests he needs to lift.
