Fort Erie Race 3

Claiming

Stake: -

STIRLING CASTLE (4) Competitive effort when 2nd last run at this venue but racing against tougher rivals. Sofia Vives and Anthony Adamo are a combination worth noting. Strong chance. HALF TO RELOAD (2) Set a strong tempo before weakening to place 2nd last run at the track and gets a favourable draw. Will be positive in the run early. Rising in class. Looks promising in this race. RYE'S MY GUY (3) Dashed home to win last start at this track but up against tougher rivals. Undefeated last 2 starts. Juan Crawford usually performs well for the Sharon Ceccato stable. Can get the job done. GLOBETROTTING (1) Had a comfortable win by 4L last start at this track and can save some energy from the draw. Matched against a stronger field. Not out of this.

Comprehensive victory when winning by 4L last start here and drawn the rails. Da Sean Zavier Gaskin and Kevin Buttigieg deserve respect together. Taking on stronger competition. Nice chance at a very tempting price.

Was quite a handful for the competition when 2nd beaten by 2L last run at this venue and can find a nice position from the draw. Definitely worth considering.

Finished hard to win last start here but facing a stronger grade. On a winning streak the last 2 attempts. Jockey Juan Crawford consistently rides well for this stable. Looks a nice proposition.

Looked good when 2nd last run at this track but competing in a more challenging class. Jockey Sofia Vives and trainer Anthony Adamo form a formidable team. Very capable of taking this out.

Backing up quickly for this race. Was agonizingly close last start at this track and displaying improvement over the past few runs. Challenged by more formidable competitors. Long shot.

Improved to place when 3rd beaten by 3L last start around here but up against a more competitive field. Should get going late. Form will be tested here.
