Assiniboia Downs Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance Optional Claiming

FINDING WAYS (6) scored last start at this track over 1006m after he was prominent at the bend. Has a strong record at this trip, scoring three times from six starts. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Expected to be in the finish. FLIPPING FISH (3) is putting together some solid results. Finished third at Prairie Meadows (Dirt) two starts back then landed the prize by 3 lengths last time out over 1106m at Legacy Downs (Dirt). Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he has the ability to mix it with them. RAGS ROYAL PRINZ (4) was prominent at the bend and finished second last time over 1006m at this track, beaten 0.3 lengths. Ready to go one better. MESSI THE GREAT (1) was in contention on the corner and finished third last time over 1106m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Capable of another top-three outcome.
