Western Fair Raceway Race 7

Race 7

Prize Money: $9,607

LORD ANTHONY (9) finished seventh last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 7 metres, after scoring at the previous appearance over 1609m at this track. Has to contend with a very wide draw. Meets a comparable field and he can find winning ways. THAI TOUR (5) was in the money at Mohawk Park two runs ago before finishing seventh at his latest appearance over 1609m at Mohawk Park, beaten 4 metres. Has the talent to take care of this field. MELS LEGACY (8) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when fifth at this track over 1609m. Must be included. REGIL BUBB (3) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. Something for the Multiples: ARTSALIVE (6)

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following December 7 run. Just managed to hang on and win won by a 0.8 m at Rideau Carleton Raceway (1:57.30) beating Greystone Watchman in on December 14 at $5 at the bell was 3rd-. This race will be harder than that win.
