Grand River Raceway Race 8

Race 8

Stake: $12,449

JGS PAL (2) ran second last start at Mohawk Park over 1609m, beaten 3 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Has the talent to take care of this field. JOKIC (5) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when a head from the winner in fourth over 1609m at this track. Leading hope based on recent form. THIRDTIMESTHEDREAM (4) is right in contention after finishing in the placings for the second time in a row last start, beaten 2 metres into third at this track. No reason he cannot take this out. ARRAKIS (3) must be respected after scoring last start by one metre at Dresden Raceway over 1609m.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Private Access at Mohawk Park over 1609m on July 6 at $94.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Southwind Russian at Mohawk Park over 1609m on July 10 at $1.55. Genuine contender in this suitable contest.

Didn't do much at the last run, 8th over 1609m at Georgian Downs beaten 30 m by Houston Seelster (1:59.00) on July 21. Before that 6th over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 6th- beaten 16 m by Like Chaos (1:54.40) on July 6 at $41.25. Happy enough to dismiss.

Didn't do much at the last run, 8th over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 7th- beaten 13 m by Victor Invictus (1:54.20) on July 6 at $25.80. Before that 4th over 1609m at Georgian Downs was 2nd- at the bell, beaten 6 m by Nasey (1:56.10) in HCP on June 23 at $27.35. Better off looking to others.
