Grand River Raceway Race 2 - Race 2
FIVE STAR LOU (1) had been racing in great heart then went close again last time over 1609m at Georgian Downs, finishing second and just a nose from the winner. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meets a comparable field and he is a strong winning hope. DEVIL'S WISH (6) was in the money two runs ago then found the frame again last time over 1609m at this track, finishing 6 metres from the winner in second. Meets a comparable field and he can take this out. SANS SOUCI (2) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 1609m at Pocono Downs last time out. MAX SHADOW (3) is the next elect off a last-start win by 4 metres at Hiawatha over 1609m.
