Century Downs Race 2

1609m

Prize Money: $9,184

TENACIOUS HANOVER (3) was out of the money two back at this track. Turned in a better run last time out when second over 1609m at this track, beaten half a metre. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field and he can give this a mighty shake. ERNESTO DELACRUZ (6) finished fourth last start, beaten 6 metres at this track over 1609m. Expecting a very good run. CATCH ME OLIVER (5) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid fifth at this track over 1609m. Hard to find fault. BLUE STAR MERCURY (2) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at this track. Can do a lot better so worth considering.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing sixth behind Midnight Mover at this track over 1609m on July 4 at $7.80. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Telluride Hanover at this track over 1609m on July 11 at $7.30. Rates highly. Big chance.

Continued his steady form from last campaign first-up. Returned to racing with a 4th over 1609m at this track was 4th- at the bell, beaten 6 m by Needabankloan (1:52.40) on July 18 at $21.35. Strips fitter and looks very hard to beat.
