Flamboro Downs Race 1

Race 1

Prize Money: $10,022

BELMONT BLAZER (9) resumes from a spell of seven months after closing off last campaign in good form, scoring at his last appearance over 1609m at Mohawk Park. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Well-placed to take this out. MATTS BANK (1) has been racing well of late. Finished fourth at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 7 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meets a similar line up and he is a strong winning hope. WICKED PRINCE (6) was responsible for a better effort last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track. Should run a big race. HARBORLITE AMBROSE (5) should be at his peak at the fourth run back from a spell, the latest outing a third at this track a week ago.
