Grand River Raceway Race 9 - Race 9
ANTEBELLUM (7) drew a wide gate last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 19 metres into ninth at this track over 1609m. Must overcome another very wide draw. Taking on a better field but she is up to the task. LONGBLACKLIMOUSINE (5) won at Georgian Downs two runs ago before a less impressive effort at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 8 metres. Must raise the bar but a better run is on the cards. MUSKIE MAN (6) can break his way into the winner's list after recording a sequence of four top-three finishes, the latest at this track a week ago. NUMERO DIX (8) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when fourth at this track over 1609m.

Failed to impress last start; 6th over 1609m at this track was 2nd- at the bell, beaten 8 m by Bella Chica (1:55.20) on July 3 at $15.80. Showed ability the run before when he won by a nose at Georgian Downs (1:57.00) beating Silver Pride in on June 20 at $6 at the bell was 4th-. This race appears well within his grasp.
