Flamboro Downs Race 4 - Race 4

CAPTAIN HIGHLINER (1) ran seventh last start at Philadelphia over 1609m, beaten 45 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Finds a suitable assignment and will prove very tough to beat. MANHATTAN JOE (2) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 3.5 metres from the winner in third over 1609m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Primary contender based on recent form. NEVADA DRAGON (3) is on the radar after his last-start fourth over 1609m at this track three weeks ago. WELL SAID CELEB (6) is worth some thought after his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track on January 18.
