Grand River Raceway Race 5 - Race 5
PUNCHESINBUNCHES (3) was in the money two runs ago then found the frame again last time over 1609m at Kawartha Downs, finishing 4 metres from the winner in third. Has the benefit of a good draw. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to take this out. HURRIKANE FERRIGNO (4) drew a wide gate last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 18 metres into seventh at this track over 1609m. Has the ability to take care of this field. EASILY THE BEST (7) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 1609m at Mohawk Park last time out. JUST ASK JOE (1) is the best of the rest after finishing fifth over 1609m at this track last time out.
