Georgian Downs Race 8 - Race 8
CAPTAIN WANIA (6) produced a solid effort at his latest appearance when he scored by 11 metres over 1609m at this track. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to cope. CASTEL LINDY (1) finished eighth at Saratoga two runs ago before finishing eighth at his latest appearance over 1609m at Saratoga, beaten 105 metres. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Leading hope if things go his way. NZURI (7) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at Grand River Raceway over 1609m. Genuine threat. CROWN MONARCH (9) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when fifth at Grand River Raceway over 1609m.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 8th (Fr5) over 1609m at Saratoga well beaten by National Love As (1:58.40) in NW5000L5CD on June 15 at $2.12. The run before 8th (Fr7) over 1609m at Saratoga, beaten 13 m by Banksy Monkey (1:56.30) in WO2-5PMCD on June 10 at $5.83. Expecting better things this time around.

Failed to impress last start; 5th over 1609m at Grand River Raceway, at the bell was 3rd- beaten 2 m by P P E (1:56.30) on July 27 at $6.95. Showed ability the run before when he posted a big 4.5 m win as favourite at this track (1:59.40) beating Bonito Boy in on July 21 at $2.65 at the bell was leading. Not out of the equation.
