Western Fair Raceway Race 8 - Race 8
TH TRU PLAY (5) has recorded two wins and two minor placings from the past five starts. Added to his reputation at his latest appearance when he got the job done by 2 metres over 1609m at this track. His last-start form is good enough to take out a race like this. WICKED SMILE (1) turned in a good effort at his latest appearance to get home by a narrow margin over 1609m at this track on January 20. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Won't find this any harder and he can salute once again. BEST BET (2) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at Mohawk Park. Can atone. ALLSTAR COMMANDER (3) is in the mix after turning in a better effort last start to finish second at this track over 1609m.

Hard to fault of late. Last start won by a nose at this track (2:00.30) beating Th Tru Play in G on January 20 at $2.15 at the bell was leading. Key runner once again.

Easy win three starts back at Flamboro Downs over 1609m G on January 4. Last time out 7th over 1609m at Mohawk Park was 6th- at the bell, beaten 17 m by Bettorthingsahead (1:56.10) in 5yo on January 24 at $12.20. Capable of more than he has shown recently. Respect.

Fair run when beaten by 3 m finishing third behind Wicked Smile at this track over 1609m in a G on January 20 at $6.85. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing second behind Th Tru Play at this track over 1609m in a G on January 27 at $7.45. Hard to roll on current form.

Last start 3rd over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 3rd- beaten 8 m by Th Tru Play (2:01.10) in G on January 27 at $3.85. Two runs back won by 2.75 m as favourite at this track (2:) beating J M Mazingan in G on January 20 at $2.10 at the bell was leading. Happy enough to avoid.

Well beaten last start by Th Tru Play, a rival who he faces again; when 19 metres fifth at this track over 1609m in a G race on January 27. Can't see him featuring.
