Flamboro Downs Race 5

Race 5

Prize Money: $6,478

BENJAMIN BEE (6) has been racing very well and deserved his victory last start, scoring by 3 metres over 1609m at this track. Big chance in a similar race. BLUEBIRD RECON (2) finished third last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 2.5 metres, after a modest fourth at Hiawatha the run prior. Has the benefit of a good draw. Leading hope if he is at his best. KYLES ART (1) is worth another chance after a last-start eighth over 1609m at this track a week ago. PASSIONATE PRINCE (9) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when fourth at this track over 1609m.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing fourth behind Captain Income at Hiawatha over 1609m in a G on September 26 at $4.65. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.5 m finishing third behind Custard Crunch at this track over 1609m in a G on October 8 at $1.95. Chief contender.
