Flamboro Downs Race 2

Race 2

Stake: $8,909

HOWYOUPLAY THEGAME (5) ran third last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 2.5 metres. This doesn't look as hard so he is sure to prove tough to beat. WOODMERE DENNY (1) finished sixth last start over 1609m at Mohawk Park, beaten 5 metres, after a modest fifth at Mohawk Park the run prior. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Has the talent to take this out. HESTONATOR (4) is looming as a real threat after a better effort last start, finishing second at this track over 1609m. SMOKIN HOT DUDE (6) disappointed last time when eighth over 1609m at Mohawk Park. Can make amends.
