Western Fair Raceway Race 5

Race 5

Prize Money: $10,867

ALL BETS ON GARY (9) finished ninth last start over 1609m at Mohawk Park, beaten 12 metres, after a modest eighth at Mohawk Park the run prior. Has to contend with a very wide draw. This doesn't look as hard so he is sure to prove tough to beat. FILLY WATCHER (4) finished sixth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 6 metres, after scoring at the previous appearance over 1609m at this track. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. SCRATCHIN AN ITCH (5) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by a head at this track over 1609m. LOOKINLIKEAMILLION (7) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound second at this track over 1609m. Something for the Multiples: COME ON ARTIE (1)

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following March 24 run. Last start won by 1.3 m at this track (1:56.00) beating Jimsun in G on April 6 at $5.20 at the bell was leading. This race will be harder than that win. Prefer others this time.

Last start 8th over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 8th- beaten 3.5 m by Scratchin An Itch (1:57.30) on April 10 at $28.30. Two runs back 8th over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 8th- beaten 6 m by Cheddar Bay (1:54.20) in HCP on March 30 at $17.15. Finds a few better. Can't recommend.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.3 m sixth behind Scratchin An Itch at this track over 1609m last start. Before that was beaten 2.25 metres second again at this track in G on April 3. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.

Failed to impress last start; 6th over 1609m at this track was 4th- at the bell, beaten 6 m by It Takes Two (1:55.00) in HCP G on April 10 at $25.75. Showed ability the race before when he won by 2.5 m at this track (1:56.10) beating Arundel Hanover in G on March 31 at $7.30 at the bell was leading. This race appears well within his grasp.

In good form recently. Last start won by a head at this track (1:57.30) beating Lookinlikeamillion in on April 10 at $12.55 at the bell was 5th-. Sure to prove tough to beat again.

Last start good run when 2nd over 1609m at this track was 2nd- at the bell, beaten a head by Scratchin An Itch (1:57.30) on April 10 at $2.90. Two runs back won by 7 m as favourite at this track (1:56.00) beating Dragon You Along in G on March 31 at $1.25 at the bell was leading. Sure to be about the money again.
