Grand River Raceway Race 9 - Race 9
NZURI (5) was successful last start by 2.75 metres in a far better performance at this track over 1609m. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is up to the challenge. MASTERWORK (6) turned in an uncharacteristically poor run most recently when 10 metres away in ninth over 1609m at Mohawk Park. Form prior to that had been solid. Finds a suitable assignment and can improve sharply. P C PETERBILT (1) is close to a win after two successive seconds, the latest over 1609m at Hiawatha. Capable of taking this out. CHIP HAPPENED (2) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound fifth at this track over 1609m.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 5 m second behind Royal Beluga at Hiawatha over 1609m HCP last start. Before that was beaten a head second again at Hiawatha in on June 13. Racing well and is a winning chance.
