Western Fair Raceway Race 9

1609M

Prize Money: $11,211

IT TAKES TWO (2) finished fourth last start over 1609m at this track but was very competitive, beaten only one metre. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a similar line up and he is capable of another strong performance. CHEDDAR BAY (7) was beaten narrowly two runs ago then went close again last time over 1609m at this track, finishing third and just half a metre from the winner. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. BEACH TOUR (1) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid fourth at this track over 1609m. Hard to find fault. LA SUN CONTROL (3) is the best of the rest after finishing third over 1609m at this track last time out.
