Casino Race 8 - Sam Ensby Memorial 1-3 Win Heat 3 H
BRUNSWICK BOY (1) jumped cleanly last start and led all the way (23.64) at this track in a Grade 5 over 411m. Winner at his latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. The one to beat again. KEN ROY (2) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fourth (24.32) at this track in a Grade 5. Expected to bounce back to best. NINITA (3) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing sixth (24.53) in a Grade 5 at this track. Should be in this for a long way. BURNSIDE LEVI (7) is worth another chance despite missing the top-three here most recently.

Good effort to score just six days ago over 411m at this track by 4 lengths in a Grade 5. Looks to have an edge on most of these.

Could only manage fourth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when third (28.36) over 484m at this track. Has a wide draw to navigate but capable of a better result.
