Grand River Raceway Race 10 - Race 10

SMILES FOR MILES (1) continued a strong run of recent form and deserved his victory last time out, scoring by 4.5 metres over 1609m at this track. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Primary contender in this comparable race. HARBORLITE AMBROSE (6) drew wide last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 12 metres into eighth at this track over 1609m. This should be an easier assignment so he is in the right race to return to form. CRAZY WORLD (5) has a strong record here so must be a chance on the back of a good win over 1609m at this track last time. IDEAL PERCEPTION (2) showed pleasing improvement last time out when third over 1609m at Hanover Raceway.

Going well. Last start posted a big 4.5 m win as favourite at this track (1:51.20) beating Taylors Credit in G on September 4 at $1.65 at the bell was leading. Won't spend a penny from this draw. Winning prospects.

Improved last start with a solid effort when 3rd over 1609m at Hanover Raceway, at the bell was 3rd- beaten 2 m by Fated Fire (1:56.40) in HCP on August 22 at $2.20. Decent effort last start. In the mix again.

Two runs back 6th over 1609m at Mohawk Park was 4th- at the bell, beaten 4 m by Instantaneous (1:55.00) in G on January 9 at $3.35. Hard to envisage a win.
