Grand River Raceway Race 1

Race 1

Prize Money: $5,034

RAISING SAND (6) registered a strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track. Leading hope in a similar line-up. CRUNCH HANOVER (3) scored last start by 2.75 metres in a break through win this campaign at Georgian Downs over 1609m. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. This is a nice drop in grade so he is set to continue his resurgent form. MAXIMUS BG (1) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Georgian Downs. CEREAL KILLER (7) is the best of the rest after finishing third over 1609m at this track last time out.
