Grand River Raceway Race 8 - Race 8
PROBABILITY (6) drew wide last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 7 metres into eighth at this track over 1609m. Meets a comparable field and he can figure in the finish. COUNTRY MAVERICK (2) is in good form with top-five finishes at his last five starts, most recently recording a second over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a similar line up so he is capable of continuing his fine form. CHIEF HAUSER (9) is close to a win after two successive seconds, the latest over 1609m at Hiawatha. Capable of taking this out. SPEEDY DANCER (3) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Georgian Downs.

Fair run when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Rough Deal at this track over 1609m in a G on June 17 at $12.75. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Lyons Moonshadow at this track over 1609m in a 4yo G on June 24 at $3.75. Strong winning prospects.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 2.5 m fourth behind Lyons Moonshadow at this track over 1609m 4yo G last start. Before that was beaten 2.75 metres fourth at Georgian Downs in G on June 16. Racing well and not without merit.

Failed to impress last start; 8th over 1609m at this track was 6th- at the bell, beaten 7 m by Rough Deal (1:54.20) in G on June 17 at $7.70. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 5 m at this track (1:55.00) beating Beachwash in G on June 3 at the bell was leading. Strong winning prospects.
