Grand River Raceway Race 10 - Race 10
SMILES FOR MILES (1) is racing well with five top-five finishes in succession, the latest effort a second at this track over 1609m. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meets a similar line up so he can add to the impressive recent efforts. TAYLORS CREDIT (5) ran ninth last start at Mohawk Park over 1609m, beaten 19 metres. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. BOLD SPIRIT (4) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when second at Georgian Downs over 1609m. Must be included. BLUE BAR (10) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at this track a week ago. Something for the Multiples: THUMANN (8)

Solid run when a close second behind Artie's Ideal at this track over 1609m in a G on August 14 at $20.95. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Crazy World at this track over 1609m in a G on August 28 at $2.95. Strong winning prospects.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 3 m fifth behind Crazy World at this track over 1609m G last start. Before that was beaten 1.3 metres second at Georgian Downs same class on August 18. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.

Didn't do much last start, 8th over 1609m at this track was 8th- at the bell, beaten 4.5 m by Crazy World (1:53.10) in G on August 28 at $18.35. Before that 8th (Fr3) over 1609m at Batavia Downs beaten 65 m by Thunder Country (1:53.40) in CLASSÂ A on August 16 at $16.93. Recent form suggests he needs to lift.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by 1.3 m as favourite at Georgian Downs (1:53.10) beating Makemealegend in G on August 18 at $2.85 at the bell was leading. Two runs back 3rd over 1609m at Georgian Downs, at the bell was 3rd- beaten 1.3 m by Belmont Blazer (1:52.40) in G on August 11 at $5.95. Happy enough to avoid.
