Flamboro Downs Race 8

Race 8

Stake: $11,593

SERENITY CRUISE (5) has had two runs this prep without filling a placing. Added to the sequence last time over 1609m at Mohawk Park, finishing 8 metres away from the winner in seventh. This should be an easier assignment so he is a major player. ARRAKIS (2) finished fifth last start over 1609m at Western Fair Raceway but gave a good account, beaten only 1.75 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. This is a nice drop in grade so he is in the right race to get the job done. GOODASHIM (4) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid fifth at Western Fair Raceway over 1609m. Hard to find fault. GREAT MAGIC (1) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when third at this track over 1609m.
