Grand River Raceway Race 1 - Race 1
PHILLY'S STRANGER (6) hard to fault recently. Scored two back at this track then lined up for a hat trick and finished 2.25 metres from the winner in second over 1609m at this track at the latest run a week ago. Tackles a similar assignment and he can bounce back to winning ways. MOONLOVER BOVINO (2) could only manage to finish sixth at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, a poor reflection on his short quote. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a similar line up and he can figure in the finish. NUGGET HUGIT (7) is a genuine type who was a solid fifth most recently at Georgian Downs. Must be included in what looks a suitable assignment. ROUGH DEAL (3) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 4 metres at this track over 1609m.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4.5 m fifth behind Lyons Papi Rock at Georgian Downs over 1609m G last start. Before that was beaten 0.3 metres second again at Georgian Downs same class on June 9. Rates highly so expect a bold run.
