Dayton Raceway Race 14 - Race 14 - 1609m
WHY NOT NOW (4) drew a wide gate last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 4 metres into sixth at this track over 1609m. Leading hope if he is at his best. SIGNAL CALLER (5) ran eighth last start at The Red Mile over 1609m, beaten 40 metres. Expected to run well. GOLD DIGGER KING (1) was responsible for a better effort last time out when third over 1609m at this track. Should run a big race. THUNDER JAM (3) is next best and gets every chance from a favourable draw.

Fair run when beaten by 6 m finishing fourth behind Fear The Hate at this track over 1609m in a NW8001L4 on October 2 at $10.30. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing third behind Dancing Stranger at this track over 1609m in a NW8001L4 on October 10 at $5.60. Has the right credentials to take this out.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 6th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track beaten 4 m by Real Thriller (1:51.40) in NW6001L4 on October 10 at $5. The run previous 9th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 35 m by Surreal Ideal (1:49.00) in DTN DERBY on October 3 at $88.80. Suitably placed and can bounce back.
