Georgian Downs Race 8

Race 8

Prize Money: $6,939

BEACH JOURNEY (1) has been racing well of late. Finished fifth at her latest appearance over 1609m at Grand River Raceway, beaten 7 metres. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is good enough to take this out. BLACK TO REALITY (3) ran eighth last start at Grand River Raceway over 1609m, beaten 6 metres. Has ability and should be right in the finish. TJ BLISS (9) is in the mix following a fourth at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. AK BLACK BADGER (5) could only finish eighth over 1609m at Mohawk Park most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix.

Recent efforts haven't been up to her best. Last start 5th over 1609m at Grand River Raceway was 2nd- at the bell, beaten 7 m by My Midnight Lover (1:53.30) in FM on July 8 at $3.35. The run prior 5th over 1609m at this track was 6th- at the bell, beaten 8 m by Big Nipper (1:55.10) in FM on July 4 at $16.20. Anticipating a much better performance this time.

Showed a glimmer of form last start 3rd over 1609m at Kawartha Downs, at the bell was 4th- beaten 3 m by Acefortyfourapollo (1:56.40) on July 4 at $22.10. But The run before was well beaten into seventh behind The Devil You Know at Kawartha Downs over 1609m on June 27 at $13.35. Will find this assignment a lot tougher.
