Fort Erie Race 3

Claiming

Stake: $36,387

SEA TO AIR (2) got well back over 1106m at Woodbine last time and never threatened, eventually finishing 9 lengths away in seventh. Finds an easier assignment and can find winning form. VINNIE VAN GO (6) is a eight-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the Julie Robillard yard. Hasn't raced since finishing fifth at Mountaineer Park (Dirt) seven months ago. Hasn't trialled publicly but is in a nice race. Definite winning chance. CORE (1) was in contention on the bend and finished second last start at the first run back from a spell over 1006m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Worth noting P Mailhot goes aboard. Placed to advantage and can run a bold race. BIG TIME LOUIE (4) is progressing well this preparation, scoring by 1.5 lengths last time out over 1006m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run.

Comes off a 29 day let-up. Most recently second last of 9 at Woodbine on June 2 over 1006m, 6 len behind Kawacatoose carrying 55.5kg at $21.75. The run before that second last of 9 at Woodbine on April 28 over 1006m, 12 len behind Tomcat Black carrying 55.5kg at $9.60. Will need plenty of improvement to feature.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
