Woodbine Mohawk Park Race 9

Race 9

Stake: $43,489

BRUE HANOVER (8) made it two in succession last start when he got the cash by half a metre over 1609m at this track. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Finds a suitable assignment and can grab another win. CAPTAIN FEAR NOT (2) won two back at this track from a nice gate. Drew a wide gate last start and was safely held, beaten 6 metres into ninth at this track over 1609m. No excuses from this advantageous draw. This doesn't look as hard so he is sure to prove tough to beat. SOARING NOW (4) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1609m at this track two weeks ago. DUBLIN DASHER (3) is in the mix if he can recapture the form from two starts back that saw him finish third over 1609m at Pocono Downs.
