Flamboro Downs Race 3

Race 3

Prize Money: $8,439

BIG SIR (3) finished sixth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 5 metres, after a good third at this track the run prior. Has the benefit of a good draw. Finds a suitable assignment and can make amends. CHASING BISMARCK (2) won at Western Fair Raceway two runs ago before having his colours lowered at his latest appearance over 1609m at Mohawk Park, beaten 11 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. This is a nice drop in grade so he is sure to prove tough to beat. OHARE HANOVER (6) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. SPORTY BEE (1) could only finish seventh over 1609m at this track most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix.

Failed to impress last start; 5th over 1609m at Mohawk Park, at the bell was 6th- beaten 11 m by Bettor B Going (1:56.10) on February 1 at $41.60. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 6 m as favourite at Western Fair Raceway (2:00.20) beating Jafar Du Lac in G on January 16 at $1.50 at the bell was leading. This race appears well within his grasp.

Didn't do much at the last run, 7th over 1609m at Western Fair Raceway, beaten 20 m by Total Stranger (1:58.40) in G on January 30 at $20.70. Before that 5th over 1609m at Western Fair Raceway, at the bell was 6th- beaten 6 m by Pebble Beach Pro (1:59.10) in G on January 16 at $45. Impossible to tip with any confidence.

Solid run when beaten by 2.25 m finishing fifth behind Doc Houston at this track over 1609m in a G on January 18 at $49.20. Then a handy effort when a close third behind Little Manny at this track over 1609m in a G on February 1 at $2.45. Heading the right way and is a leading contender.
