Grand River Raceway Race 10 - Race 10
LARJON LUKE (1) made a winning start to his career a week ago, getting home by a neck over 1609m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. That latest effort is good enough to put him right in the finish. FINDING MY WAY (2) produced a better effort last time out when he scored by a neck over 1609m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. Won't find this any harder and he can go right on with the job. ALCHEMY HANOVER (7) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Mohawk Park. BERNOULLI (4) broke through last time out over 1609m at this track. Must be included with the confidence up.
