Flamboro Downs Race 9 - Race 9
CIAO (2) resumes after finishing seventh at his latest appearance at Charlottetown on May 23. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Taking on a better field but he is capable of running a big race. CATEGORY (3) finished seventh last start over 1609m at Grand River Raceway, beaten 10 metres, after a modest sixth at Georgian Downs the run prior. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meets a similar quality field and is good enough to win a race of this calibre. LOUIE THE LEGEND (10) should be at his peak for this. Finished fourth over 1609m at Kawartha Downs at the latest appearance five days ago. Sure to give the top fancies plenty to think about. OCEANOGRAPHER (4) disappointed last time when eighth over 1609m at Grand River Raceway. Can do a lot better so worth considering.
