Grand River Raceway Race 6 - Race 6
SARAQUEL (5) was in the money at Mohawk Park two runs ago before finishing eighth at her latest appearance over 1609m at Mohawk Park, beaten 11 metres. Ideally placed and is sure to play a major role. TWITTLE STICKS (4) has been a model of consistency of late and deserved her success last time out, scoring by a nose over 1609m at Georgian Downs. That latest effort is good enough to take out a race like this. SNEAKING OUT (2) is worth another chance after a last-start eighth over 1609m at this track two weeks ago. SLIM DAISY (7) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when fifth at Georgian Downs over 1609m.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start won by 2.75 m at Georgian Downs (2:03.00) beating Stonebridge Belle in 2yo F on August 15 at $2.90 at the bell was 2nd-. Hard to leave out on current form. Must be considered.

Didn't do much at the last run, 7th over 1609m at Georgian Downs was 6th- at the bell, beaten 5.5 m by Ellie (2:00.20) on August 22 at $16.65. Before that 4th over 1609m at Georgian Downs was 4th- at the bell, beaten 17 m by Thwarter (1:57.10) on August 8 at $6.05. Looks to be making up the numbers.

Comes here second-up after two weeks. Lacklustre first-up performance when 7th over 1609m at Hanover Raceway, beaten 30 m by Arrakis (2:01.40) on August 15 at $29.50. Not doing enough of late to threaten.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 3.5 m fifth behind Ellie at Georgian Downs over 1609m last start. Before that was beaten 4 metres fourth at Kawartha Downs in 3yo OPEN F on August 8. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.

Returns to racing after a spell of 12 weeks. Well beaten at the end of his last preparation at this course and distance when eighth unwanted in the market behind Vista Verde. Hasn't won for 13 months, so it's hard to be over-confident.
