Century Downs Race 1

1609M

Stake: $9,677

MATTEUSE (7) turned in a good effort at his latest appearance to get home by a narrow margin over 1609m at this track on April 19. Has to contend with a very wide draw. That latest effort is good enough to put him right in the finish. SOLAR SOLUTION (2) ran third last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 7 metres. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. TAKE OUT HANOVER (1) is in the mix following a respectable second at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. BONUS ROUND (3) resumes. Last appeared when a modest eighth over 1609m at Century Mile 11 weeks ago.
