Dayton Raceway Race 1 - Race 1 - 1609m
HAGRID (3) went well to finish second two starts ago then recorded a commanding win last time out, scoring by 5 metres over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field and he can salute once again. TWIN B MANHUNT (2) is better than his last-start seventh over 1609m at Pocono Downs. LOS ALAMITOS (7) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when second at this track over 1609m.

Well beaten last start by Hagrid, a rival who he faces again; when 24 metres seventh at this track over 1609m in a NW4PM-CL race on October 19. Can't see him featuring.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing third behind Keep Score at this track over 1609m in a NW1501L4 on October 10 at $10.90. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing second behind Hagrid at this track over 1609m in a NW4PM-CL on October 19 at $2.90. Should be right in the finish.

Second-up here following a spell. Good run when 3rd (Fr4) over 1609m at Northfield Park, beaten 1.5 m by Fired Up Henry L (1:54.40) in OHFCH 3C on October 10 at $11.40. Strips fitter and can make his presence felt.
