Western Fair Raceway Race 8 - Race 8

BUZZ LIGHTYEAR (3) has been racing well of late. Finished third at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 4 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Good enough to take out a race like this. GEARSON (1) won two back at Flamboro Downs from a nice gate. Drew a wide gate last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 2 metres into seventh at this track over 1609m. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Tackles a similar assignment and he can turn in a much better performance. ARUNDEL HANOVER (5) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at this track two weeks ago. WRITE ABOUT NOW (4) is in the mix if he can recapture the form from two starts back that saw him finish second over 1609m at this track.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing sixth behind Total Stranger at this track over 1609m in a G on March 24 at $14.85. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.5 m finishing second behind Filly Watcher at this track over 1609m in a G on March 31 at $6.60. Has the right credentials to take this out.

Before that 9th over 1609m at Mohawk Park, at the bell was 7th- beaten 9 m by Jmr Speak Away (1:52.10) on March 21 at $56.15. Win doesn't look likely.
