Flamboro Downs Race 8

Race 8

Prize Money: $25,562

ELBOWS UP (2) has been racing well of late. Finished second at her latest appearance over 1609m at Mohawk Park, beaten a nose. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Finds a tougher race but a big run is on the cards. LIFE IS GREAT (6) has been racing well of late. Finished second at her latest appearance over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway, beaten 9 metres. Meets a comparable field and she can figure in the finish. CANUKEEPASECRET (3) disappointed last time when tenth over 1609m at Mohawk Park. Can make amends. CALGARY MORNING (7) is worth some thought despite her last-start ninth over 1609m at Mohawk Park on May 4.

Solid performance when a close second behind Just Business at Mohawk Park over 1609m in a 3yo F on April 25 at $2. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Southwind Florence at Mohawk Park over 1609m in a FM on May 11 at $8.70. Hard to roll on current form.

Failed to impress last start; 10th over 1609m at Mohawk Park beaten 30 m by Blue Jean Gal (1:55.00) in 3yo F on May 8 at $62.20. Showed ability the race before when she won by a neck at Mohawk Park (1:56.10) beating Lo And Behold in FM on April 27 at $3.60 at the bell was leading. Capable of more than she has shown recently. Respect.
