Grand River Raceway Race 2

Race 2

Prize Money: $12,060

SOUTHWIND SPINO (5) was in the money two runs ago then found the frame again last time over 1609m at Mohawk Park, finishing 11 metres from the winner in third. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. KEKOA (1) ran fourth last start at Mohawk Park over 1609m, beaten 9 metres. Expect him to pose a serious challenge. ALWAYS AT THE BAR (7) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 1609m at this track last time out. COUNTING PEBBLES (4) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Solid performance when beaten by 1.3 m finishing second behind Carsons Lucky Chip at this track over 1609m in a 2yo CG on August 26 at $5.10. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Cherry Bomber at Mohawk Park over 1609m in a 2yo CG on August 31 at $19.95. This race appears well within his grasp.
