Dayton Raceway Race 8

1609M

Stake: $31,424

WHO DEY NATION (5) finished third at this track two runs ago before finishing third at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 6 metres. Meets a comparable field and he can play a big role. MCTORIOUS (3) was responsible for a good effort at his latest run to get home by a narrow margin over 1609m at this track on November 28. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. That latest effort is good enough to win a race of this calibre. DRAW OFF (1) is on the radar after his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track a week ago. SUPPLEMENTAL FEE (6) is the best of the rest after finishing sixth over 1609m at this track last time out.
