Grand River Raceway Race 8 - Race 8
WINDEMERE CLASSIE (3) produced a good effort at her latest run to get home by a narrow margin over 1609m at Georgian Downs on June 27. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. This looks a sterner test than last time but she is good enough to take this out. SOLIDAZABRICKHOUSE (4) had to call on all reserves to score last time out over 1609m at this track, getting home by just a head. Meets some better types this time but she has the ability to test this field. SNAKE EYES HANOVER (2) has a strong record here so must be a chance on the back of a good win over 1609m at this track last time. GIN IS BETTER (5) is in the mix following a fifth at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Four-year-old mare is racing in fine form. Won her last two outings at Georgian Downs and this track both over 1609m. Last start won by 1.75 m at Georgian Downs (1:55.20) beating Windsun Coco in FM on June 27 at $3.15 at the bell was leading. Recent form hard to fault and is again a strong contender.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.3 m fifth behind Solidazabrickhouse at this track over 1609m FM last start. Before that was beaten 2.5 metres seventh at Mohawk Park same class on June 28. Racing well and not without merit.
