Century Downs Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609M
CEASARS PALACE (3) made a winning return at his latest appearance a week ago, getting home by a head over 1609m at this track. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. That latest effort is good enough to win a race of this calibre. UP THE GUN (9) ran third last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 2.25 metres. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. ERIC SHARK (6) is on the radar after his last-start fourth over 1609m at this track a week ago. MATCHMAKERS PICK (4) is worth some thought despite his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track on April 10.

Didn't do much at the last run, 8th over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 5th- beaten 9 m by Ceasars Palace (1:58.20) on April 10 at $38.55. Before that 7th over 1609m at The Track On 2, at the bell was 7th- beaten 18 m by Wicked Feeling (2:02.40) on March 8 at $31.85. Hard to make a case on recent form.

Two back was well beaten into ninth behind Luau at this track over 1609m on April 4 at $78.20. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing second behind Sanbucca at this track over 1609m on April 10 at $22.30. One of the key runners.
