Dayton Raceway Race 5

1609M

Prize Money: $22,901

STRANGERINTHENIGHT (6) finished fourth last start, beaten 15 metres at Cumberland Run over 1609m. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a major role. REAL THRILLER (1) missed the placings for the second time in a row last start when 16 metres away in fourth over 1609m at this track. Recent form includes a win at this track three starts back on October 7. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Leading hope if things fall his way. FULLY A DRAGON (7) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 35 metres at this track over 1609m. DAPPER DESIGN (8) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 4 metres at this track over 1609m. Something for the Multiples: BELIEVE IN TOM (3)
