Woodbine Mohawk Park Race 12

Race 12

Prize Money: $39,238

JK BLACK GOLD (7) had to dig deep to score at the most recent appearance over 1609m at this track, getting home by just half a metre. Has to contend with a very wide draw. Taking on a better field but he is good enough to cope. ROCHESTER FLASH (2) made it two wins and a minor placing from his last three starts when he scored by 0.8 metres on August 9 over 1609m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Facing a tougher assignment but he is capable of running another big race. UNCLE SHANK (5) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 1609m at this track last time out. BOLD SPIRIT (8) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 2.5 metres at this track over 1609m.
