Mountaineer Park Race 6

Starter Optional Claiming

Prize Money: $22,496

CANADIAN BEAR (1) was far from disgraced when second last start after being in contention on the bend over 1609m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. That followed a win at this track the start prior. Has raced four times here and has never missed the frame. Rocco Bowen gets the best out of this four-year-old filly. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot make amends. NIGHT NURSE (4) has been thereabouts without winning, the most recent offering a third at Presque Isle Downs (Synthetic) over 1673m when she was beaten one length. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Best form puts her right in this. GOSHEN (6) hasn't been far away lately, beaten 1.5 lengths at her most recent outing when fourth over 1609m at Thistledown (Dirt). Should park just off the speed. Will give backers a great sight. GOLDCREST (5) really dug deep to score by 10 lengths three runs back at Parx (Dirt) before filling a minor placing at her last two starts. Should be poised just off the lead. Don't underestimate.

At the latest run 4th of 7 at this track on July 21 over 1609m, 11 len behind In To The Night with 54kg at $2.50. The race before that ran second last of 10 at this track on July 6 over 1609m, 31 len behind Tuenda carrying 56kg at $8.70. Might just find this a bit too tough.
