Finger Lakes Race 5

Mdn Special Weight

Prize Money: $45,467

GRIZZ AT THE GATE (5) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing 3 lengths from the winner in second over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Should improve sharply and this looks a nice race. STAYFROSTYMYFRIEND (3) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then was beaten 9 lengths when sixth in a 1609m contest at Aqueduct three-and-a-half weeks ago. Likely improver with strong prospects. HAMILTON'S REASON (2) was in the firing line on the corner and finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1106m at this track (Dirt), beaten 4 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a forward showing. CHARLIE MY BOY (7) was prominent at the bend and finished third last time over 1106m at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 5 lengths. Will trim down second-up. Suitably placed so anticipating another strong effort.

Second run back. First-up after six months sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 7 at this track on May 19 over 1106m, 4 len behind Stevie Wonderful carrying 55.5kg at $4.52. Previously second-up 3rd of 9 at this track on October 20 over 1207m, 9 len behind Savage State carrying 55.5kg at $8.16. Fitter again and a winning hope.

Returned from break 3rd in a small field at this track on May 19 over 1106m, 5 len behind Beev's Blessing carrying 55.5kg at $4.03. Should progress from that first-up run.
