Flamboro Downs Race 7

Race 7

Stake: $11,200

GOLDEN LEADER (1) again drew a wide gate last start and failed to feature, beaten 13 metres into ninth at Mohawk Park over 1609m. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. YODA QUEEN (4) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 2.5 metres from the winner in second over 1609m at this track. Leading hope based on recent form. LA PETITE GRISE (2) must be considered after she finished third over 1609m at this track a week ago. D A TEMPTATION (6) is in the mix following a fifth at her most recent appearance over 1609m at Mohawk Park.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following November 23 run. Just managed to hang on and win won by a 0.5 m at this track (1:57.20) beating Baby Step Back in 3yo FM on November 29 at $6.85 at the bell was 5th-. This race will be harder than that win. Will not find this easy.
