Woodbine Mohawk Park Race 2

Race 2

Stake: $43,991

BRUE HANOVER (3) has been racing very well and kept it up last time out with a strong win at this track over 1609m. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meets a comparable field and he can go right on with the job. TAURASI (4) turned in a much better run at his latest appearance when he scored by 0.8 metres over 1609m at this track. This looks a sterner test than last time but he is capable of another big performance. ERVIN HANOVER (5) finished fourth last start over 1609m at Saratoga. Generally runs very well at this circuit so can play a big role. DUBLIN DASHER (6) must be respected after scoring last start by half a metre at this track over 1609m.
