Fort Erie Race 5

Allowance

Stake: -

IF YOU INSIST (2) Led from start to finish to win by a head last run at this venue and has a good draw. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Look for a bold run. SCAT FACTOR (1) Finished 5th last start at the track. Looking for an improved run and competing at a lower level of competition. Alexis Sanchez is a suitable booking. Is in good order and can run well. LE GRAND GARCON (3) Resuming after a spell of 37 weeks. Made some ground late when 3rd last time here and facing weaker opposition. Honest and strong place bet in this race. TIMES A BREEZE (5) Improved late to finish 5th last time at this venue and going over more ground. Can go through the gears. Matched against tougher rivals. Could place.

Was much too speedy in front to win by a head last run at this venue and drawn nicely. Has shown early pace in races to date. Holds a major chance.

Resuming after a 37 week break. Solid effort to run into 3rd beaten by 4 1/2L last time around here and going down in grade. Big improvement required to threaten these.

Sub-standard effort when 7th last start at the track but up against a less competitive field. Finishes off strongly. Couldn't have in this.

Jumped at $12.00 and made ground when closing off to finish 5th last time here and facing a rise in trip. Always seems to find the line well. Most likely not today.
