Grand River Raceway Race 1 - Race 1
MOONLOVER BOVINO (6) made it three wins on the trot last start, getting home by 4 metres over 1609m at this track. Meeting a deeper field this time but he good enough to play a major role. BETTOR TALKER (9) has put together a fine sequence of results and kept it up last time out with a strong win at this track over 1609m. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Leading hope in a similar race. BAJAN FIREFLY (5) is worth another chance after a last-start eighth over 1609m at Mohawk Park six days ago. ERINWOOD BIG MACK (1) is the best of the rest after finishing fifth over 1609m at this track last time out.

Fair run when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Happy In Control at Mohawk Park over 1609m in a G on August 13 at $3.05. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing second behind Moonlover Bovino at this track over 1609m in a G on August 19 at $9.30. Going nicely and looks very hard to beat.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 8th over 1609m at Mohawk Park, at the bell was 5th- beaten 12 m by Exactly Correct (1:49.40) in 3yo OPEN CG on August 20 at $34.45. At the previous start 7th over 1609m at Mohawk Park, at the bell was 2nd- beaten 5 m by Ryder Ross (1:50.20) in 3yo CG on August 8 at $24.85. Suitably placed and can make amends.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by 4 m as favourite at this track (1:52.40) beating Arson Seelster in G on August 19 at $1.65 at the bell was 2nd-. Two runs back won by a head at Mohawk Park (1:51.20) beating Hazee Coast in on August 9 at $8.35 at the bell was 2nd-. Definite winning chance.

Solid performance when a close second behind Day Delight at this track over 1609m in a G on August 14 at $2.20. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing third behind Bettor Talker at this track over 1609m in a G on August 19 at $20.95. Should be right in the finish.

Comes here in the right form. Won by 1.5 m at this track (1:52.10) beating No Waitlist in G on August 19 at $8.10 at the bell was leading. Two runs back won by a nose as favourite at this track (1:53.10) beating Saulsbrook Rodeo in G on August 12 at $1.45 at the bell was leading. Hard to beat again.
