Western Fair Raceway Race 10

Race 10

Prize Money: $9,969

WILD DOC HOLLIDAY (2) scored by half a metre at this track over 1609m last start, the second win from his past five runs. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. SCRATCHIN AN ITCH (1) produced a good effort at his latest appearance to get home by a narrow margin over 1609m at this track on March 3. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Won't find this any harder and he can go right on with the job. LORD ANTHONY (7) scored last start over 1609m at this track. Generally runs very well at this circuit so can play a big role again. HEZA HANDY MAN (3) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 0.8 metres at this track over 1609m.

Failed to impress last start; 8th over 1609m at this track was 6th- at the bell, beaten 8 m by Wild Doc Holliday (1:58.30) in G on February 24 at $6.65. Showed ability the run before when he won by a 0.8 m as favourite at this track (1:57.20) beating Silver Spirit in G on February 13 at $2.90 at the bell was 2nd-. Can do a lot better.

Last start 5th over 1609m at this track was 6th- at the bell, beaten 4 m by Scratchin An Itch (1:59.00) in G on March 3 at $2.30. Two runs back 2nd over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 3rd- beaten 0.5 m by Wild Doc Holliday (1:58.30) in G on February 24 at $5.25. Even the minor placings look out of reach.

Resuming after three-and-a-half months off the scene. Finished off last preparation when beaten by 4.5 m finishing fifth behind Granite Beach at Flamboro Downs over 1609m in a G on November 23 at $7.60. Previous preparation first-up won by a 0.5 m at Georgian Downs (1:54.10) beating Better Sunset in G on June 13 2023 at $4.65. Look for improvement on last start. Not out of it.

Nine-year-old gelding Is on a seven-day back-up and has been racing consistently with 3 consecutive minor placings. Good effort last outing 2nd over 1609m at this track was leading by at the bell, beaten 0.8 m by Heza Handy Man (1:58.30) in G on March 3 at $2.25. Will find this assignment a lot tougher.
