Grand River Raceway Race 5 - Race 5
DJIMON (5) produced a good effort at his latest appearance to get home by a narrow margin over 1609m at this track on August 17. Meets a comparable field so he is capable of getting the job done again. LOCATELLI (1) continued a strong run of recent form and registered another victory last time out, scoring by one metre over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field so he can keep the ball rolling. PATRIARCH HANOVER (6) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at this track a week ago. INSANITY (2) is in the mix after finishing runner-up for the second time in a row last start, beaten 1.3 metres at Georgian Downs.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.3 m second behind Muscle Fashion at Georgian Downs over 1609m last start. Before that was beaten 0.8 metres second again at Georgian Downs same class on August 11. Racing well and not without merit.

Six-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start won by 2 m at this track (1:53.20) beating Patriarch Hanover in on August 17 at $3.10 at the bell was leading. No reason he cannot chalk-up the hat-trick.

Didn't do much at the last run, 8th over 1609m at Mohawk Park was 5th- at the bell, beaten 8 m by Myfriendjose (1:53.00) on August 9 at $63.85. Before that 5th over 1609m at Mohawk Park, at the bell was 5th- beaten 6 m by Mr Bluebird (1:52.20) on August 2 at $64.60. This looks too tough.
