Fonner Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Claiming
EL MERO MERO (2) was in the firing line on the bend and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1207m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. MOON SHINE TIME (7) turned in a solid run when resuming last start over this course and distance, finishing second and beaten only half a length. Should be prominent from the outset. Will prove tough to beat. SPIRIT'S MISCHIEF (4) drifted well back and failed to finish it off last start when seventh, beaten 4.5 lengths, over 805m in Listed grade at this track (Dirt). Finds an easier assignment and can take this out. REQUISITION (1) is back from a spell of four months. Closed last campaign with a minor placing over 1673m at Arapahoe Park (Dirt). Has to be respected. Something for the Multiples: UPSTRIKER (3)
