Woodbine Mohawk Park Race 5 - Race 5
MY BUDDY SAM (5) recorded a strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at Grand River Raceway. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is up to the challenge. SPARKS FLY (1) has been racing well of late. Finished third at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 7 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Ideally placed and is sure to play a major role. SHADRACK HANOVER (7) must be considered after he finished third over 1609m at Grand River Raceway six days ago. TYMAL RIGGS (8) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Grand River Raceway.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 2 m third behind Masterwork at Grand River Raceway over 1609m last start. Before that was beaten 4 metres fifth at this track same class on April 8 2024. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.

Brings the right form to the table. Posted a big 5 m win at Grand River Raceway (1:56.00) beating No Angel Like Me in on June 8 at $3.20 at the bell was leading. Two runs back 2nd over 1609m at Western Fair Raceway, at the bell was 4th- beaten 1.3 m by April Duford (1:57.20) on May 26 at $4.75. This appears outside his grasp.
