Century Downs Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609m

SHARK WEEK (6) has raced 60 times for an impressive 40 wins in a prodigious career to date. Made it two wins on the trot last start, getting home by 0.8 metres over 1609m at this track. Meets a comparable field so he can keep the ball rolling. MERCEDES (5) was yet again about the mark last start when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 0.8 metres. Leading hope in a similar race. OUTLAW GAME ON (4) is close to a win after two successive placings, the latest a third over 1609m at this track. Great chance to break through. NEEDABANKLOAN (2) has been hard to fault of late, adding to the winning tally last start with success over 1609m at this track.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start won by 1.5 m as favourite at this track (1:52.20) beating Telluride Hanover in on July 25 at $3.20 at the bell was leading. Hard to leave out on current form. Worth including.

Well beaten last start by Shark Week, a rival who he faces again; when 23 metres sixth at this track over 1609m in a race on July 25. Can't have on that basis.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4 m third behind Shark Week at this track over 1609m last start. Before that was beaten 4 metres third again at this track same class on July 18. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.

Eight-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start won by a 0.8 m at this track (1:50.30) beating Mercedes in on July 25 at $2.15 at the bell was leading. Hard to fault on recent form.
