Western Fair Raceway Race 8

Race 8

Prize Money: $51,125

HIGHLAND DELIGHT (9) has recorded two wins and two minor placings from the past five starts. Performed well once again when third at her latest appearance over 1609m at Mohawk Park, beaten 1.5 metres. Must overcome a very wide draw. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she has the ability to mix it with them. LETS N JOY N (7) has been racing very well and kept it up last time out with a strong win at Mohawk Park over 1609m. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she good enough to play a major role. TALK CURDY TO ME (8) was responsible for a better effort last time out when runner-up over 1609m at Mohawk Park. Should run a big race. GRIT N GRACE (4) finished third at Mohawk Park last time. Consistent and deserves respect.
