Grand River Raceway Race 10

Race 10

Stake: $13,428

LARJON LUKE (1) made a winning start to his career a week ago, getting home by a neck over 1609m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. That latest effort is good enough to put him right in the finish. FINDING MY WAY (2) produced a better effort last time out when he scored by a neck over 1609m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. Won't find this any harder and he can go right on with the job. ALCHEMY HANOVER (7) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Mohawk Park. BERNOULLI (4) broke through last time out over 1609m at this track. Must be included with the confidence up.

Having his second run back from a spell. Game effort when 3rd over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 7th- beaten 2.5 m by Tall N Cruising (1:53.40) in G on August 5 at $15.05. Likely improver who is a definite top-three chance.
