Grand River Raceway Race 9

Race 9

Stake: $7,490

SMILES FOR MILES (5) impressed when fresh from a spell last start when successful over 1609m at this track on 18/07/2025, getting home by 1.3 metres. Meets a similar line up so he can keep the ball rolling. HARBORLITE JIMMIE (1) finished fourth last start over 1609m at this track but was very competitive, beaten only 2.75 metres. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field and he can test this line-up. LUCKY DANCER (3) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at this track over 1609m. Genuine threat. MAPPO ORILEY (2) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.
