Grand River Raceway Race 7 - Race 7
BUSINMOTION (4) drew wide last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 6 metres into ninth at Mohawk Park over 1609m. From this far better draw can take this out. PLAYOFF JIMMY (1) finished ninth last start, beaten 10 metres at Mohawk Park over 1609m. Expecting a very good run. AVALANCHE (2) is the next best after finishing runner-up over 1609m at this track last time out. MCDOONALD (7) finished third over 1609m at this track last start at his first racetrack appearance. Strips fitter and can make his presence felt.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.5 m second behind High Rise Hanover at this track over 1609m 2yo CG last start. Before that was beaten 5 metres sixth again at this track same class on August 19. Racing well and not without merit.

Two-year-old gelding lining up for the second time. At debut good run when 3rd over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 3rd- beaten 2.75 m by High Rise Hanover (1:58.20) in 2yo CG on August 26 at $5.60. Decent effort last start. In the mix again.
