Western Fair Raceway Race 11

1609M

Prize Money: $8,782

AZUCAR JACK (3) missed the placings for the second time in a row at the most recent outing when 6 metres away in fifth over 1609m at Flamboro Downs. Recent form includes a win at this track three starts back on November 12. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Has the talent to return to something like his best. MARSHALL ZHUKOV (1) finished third last start, beaten 3 metres at Mohawk Park over 1609m. Expected to run well. HOLLYS TREASURE (5) has a strong record here which is significant. Finished eighth over 1609m at Flamboro Downs last time out. HOMEY JOE (4) is better than his last-start eighth over 1609m at this track.
