Grand River Raceway Race 5 - Race 5
ARTIE'S IDEAL (1) registered a strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at Mohawk Park. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Won't find this any harder and he can take this out. CRAZY WORLD (2) registered a strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is capable of another big performance. CANT STOP LOU (4) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. BOLD SPIRIT (5) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Failed to impress last start; 5th over 1609m at Georgian Downs, at the bell was 3rd- beaten 7 m by Etherium Party (1:54.20) in G on July 28 at $3.10. Showed ability the run before when he won by 2 m as favourite at Georgian Downs (1:51.10) beating Chicken N Dice in G on July 7 at $1.65 at the bell was leading. Doesn't need to improve much to play a role in the finish.
