Flamboro Downs Race 8

Race 8

Prize Money: $8,439

CHASING BISMARCK (4) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when a neck from the winner in second over 1609m at this track. Meets a comparable field and he is a strong winning hope. LITTLE MANNY (1) scored at this track two runs ago before having his colours lowered when seventh at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 6 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Meets a similar line up and he can play a big role. SMOKESTACK (6) is looming as a real threat after a better effort last start, finishing second at this track over 1609m. OHARE HANOVER (2) is a chance after finishing in the money for the second time in a row last start, beaten 1.3 metres into third at this track.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.3 m third behind Double Down Duke at this track over 1609m G last start. Before that was beaten 0.8 metres third again at this track same class on February 1. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Bettor B Going at Mohawk Park over 1609m on February 1 at $41.60. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Double Down Duke at this track over 1609m in a G on February 8 at $2.80. Plenty to like about his prospects.

Didn't do much at the last run, 8th over 1609m at Mohawk Park, at the bell was 8th- beaten 10 m by Toronto (1:57.10) on February 2 at $40.30. Before that 10th over 1609m at Mohawk Park, at the bell was 10th- beaten 15 m by Elliot Moose (1:55.00) on January 4 at $9.35. Prefer in something a bit easier.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing fourth behind Onyx Bovino at this track over 1609m in a HCP G on February 1 at $6. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing second behind Lamandier at this track over 1609m in a G on February 8 at $3. Capable of a strong showing.
