Georgian Downs Race 7

Race 7

Prize Money: $10,650

WRY (5) drew a wide gate last start and was safely held, beaten 8 metres into ninth at Mohawk Park over 1609m. This is a nice drop in grade so he is sure to prove tough to beat. VERTICAL SQUIRT (7) put together a series of minor placings then displayed pleasing improvement last start on August 17 over 1609m at this track, getting home by 1.75 metres. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Meets a comparable field so he can certainly make it two on the bounce. LARRY KARR (4) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. ODDS ON CARMEL (1) is worth some thought despite his last-start seventh over 1609m at this track on August 10.
