Western Fair Raceway Race 6

Race 6

Prize Money: $10,867

ATLAS HANOVER (2) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 2.25 metres from the winner in second over 1609m at this track. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Big chance based on those recent efforts. LOOKINLIKEAMILLION (5) had been racing in great heart then maintained the momentum last start when he scored by 7 metres over 1609m at this track. Stepping up a level this time but he is capable of making it consecutive wins. ROSE RUN VORTEX (1) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 1609m at this track last time out. HEZA HANDY MAN (4) is worth some thought based on his victory over 1609m at this track two runs ago.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4 m sixth behind Diamond Ryder at this track over 1609m HCP G last start. Before that was beaten 1.75 metres second again at this track in G on March 24. Rates highly so expect a bold run.

Fair run when beaten by 5 m finishing second behind Diamond Ryder at this track over 1609m in a G on March 27 at $7.10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing second behind It Takes Two at this track over 1609m in a G on April 3 at $25.35. Has the ability to play a major role.

Failed to impress last start; 7th over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 6th- beaten 4.5 m by Diamond Ryder (1:55.40) in HCP G on April 3 at $21.95. Showed ability the race before when he won by 1.75 m at this track (1:56.30) beating Rose Run Vortex in G on March 24 at $3.20 at the bell was leading. Makes plenty of appeal.

Last start 8th over 1609m at this track was 8th- at the bell, beaten 6 m by Cheddar Bay (1:54.20) in HCP on March 30 at $17.15. Two runs back won by a 0.5 m at this track (1:58.30) beating Docsphillycheese in G on March 20 at $12.70 at the bell was 4th-. Can't see him troubling these.

Has been racing well this preparation and showed plenty of improvement following March 29 run. Just managed to hang on and win won by a 0.5 m at Flamboro Downs (1:57.10) beating Gansbaai in G on April 5 at $32.40 at the bell was 2nd-. This race will be harder than that win. Rough place hope at best.
