Grand River Raceway Race 5 - Race 5
JIMMYSONAROLL (9) has been excellent of late and he made it two in a row when successful at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, getting home by 4 metres. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Meets some better types this time but he has the ability to test this field. ROWDY PATRICK (1) did a good job to finish second two starts ago then registered a commanding victory last start, scoring by 10 metres over 1609m at Hanover Raceway. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. This looks a sterner test than last time but he is good enough to take this out. END OF THE TRAIL (8) is the next elect off a last-start win by a head at this track over 1609m. AMBUSH SEELSTER (10) disappointed last time but is a chance based on a good second over 1609m at this track two runs back.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Kaptainkrave at Kawartha Downs over 1609m on June 20 at $9.70. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing third behind Jimmysonaroll at this track over 1609m in a G on June 26 at $9.70. Should be right in the finish.

Second-up here following a spell. Solid effort when 2nd over 1609m at Hiawatha was 4th- at the bell, beaten 3 m by Red Beach One (1:54.40) on July 4 at $27.95. Capable of another top-three result.

Four-year-old entire is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start posted a big 4 m win as favourite at this track (1:53.20) beating Ambush Seelster in G on July 3 at $1.45 at the bell was leading. Recent form hard to fault and is again a strong contender.
