Fair Grounds Race 3

Starter Optional Claiming

Stake: -

GUILE (3) Good run when placing 2nd beaten by 1 1/2L last run at this venue but up against tougher rivals. Been in the money 3 from 3 attempts this preparation. Appears as a winning threat. DOUBLE EDGE SWORD (1) Led throughout when winning by 3 3/4L last run at Delta Downs and has drawn the rails. Very tidy this campaign winning 3 from as many attempts. Can win this. NOTION (8) Came on strongly to finish 2nd last start around here but challenged by a tougher grade. Displays good closing speed. Very competitive this preparation but down in trip. Could give some each way value. WE MISS ARLINGTON (7) Set the tempo to win by a margin of 1 1/4L last time around here and proven performer at this trip. Should be going forward early. Facing formidable competition. Solid each way claims.
