Grand River Raceway Race 7 - Race 7
VOLCANIC (8) was successful at his most recent outing by half a metre in a nice return to form at this track over 1609m. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. His recent effort is good enough to take out a race like this. STATE ONE SMILEY (2) is in good form at present. Finished second at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten half a metre. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Leading hope based on recent form. HARBORLITE JIMMIE (9) is on the radar after his last-start fifth over 1609m at this track a week ago. KOUNTRY GRACE (4) is close to a win after two successive placings, the latest a third over 1609m at this track.
