Dayton Raceway Race 12 - Race 12 - 1609m
CARBINE (3) has been racing well, filling a top-five position at his last four starts including a third most recently at Scioto Downs over 1609m. Has the benefit of a good draw. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he good enough to play a major role. BETTER IS NICE (7) drew a wide gate last start and was safely held, beaten 18 metres into tenth at Scioto Downs over 1609m. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Has the ability to take this out. BOOMERANG (6) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when third at Scioto Downs over 1609m. Must be included. DOWNBYTHEDANCECLUB (4) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when fourth at Scioto Downs over 1609m.

Two back was well beaten into second behind Rock Shines Again at Scioto Downs over 1609m in a OPEN II on July 25 at $11.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third behind Nashing Hill at Scioto Downs over 1609m in a NW11501L4 on August 1 at $2.40. One of the key runners.

Fair performance when beaten by 4 m finishing second behind Downbythewater at Scioto Downs over 1609m in a HGNW8001L4 on September 12 at $1.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 7 m finishing third behind I Did It Myway at Scioto Downs over 1609m in a NW11501L4 on September 19 at $3.70. Plenty to like about his prospects.
