Grand River Raceway Race 5 - Race 5

SPORTY BEE (3) ran seventh last start at Mohawk Park over 1609m, beaten 3 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Has the talent to take this out. ETHERIUM PARTY (2) made a nice return at his latest appearance a week ago, finishing 2.75 metres away in second over 1609m at this track. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. That latest effort is good enough to take out a race like this. BOZAK (6) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. SMART THINKING (1) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.
