Fonner Park Race 8 - Elite Sprint Cup S. Stakes

AXEL STEEL (5) was safely held when third last time out over 1207m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Meets a stronger field but he is good enough. PAYNTED BLUE (2) had been in top form, scoring two consecutive wins before being sent out favourite last time and finishing fifth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). David Cardoso who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Leading contender. BEEZER (8) was in the placings at his first two runs this preparation before breaking through over 1207m at this track (Dirt) last time. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. One to consider. BERGHEIM (3) registered a strong win two runs ago then turned in a nice run last time out when second over 1207m at Lone Star Park, beaten 0.3 lengths. Should be thereabouts.

At the latest run second last in a small field at this track on April 11 over 1207m, 7 len behind Rexford carrying 56.5kg at $2.50. The start before that came from midfield and won by 1.5 len at this track LR March 21 over 1207m defeating General Shipman carrying 56.5kg at $3.70. Worth another chance.

At the latest run came from midfield; 2nd of 7 at this track on April 11 over 1308m, 0.3 len behind My Uncle Leon carrying 56.5kg at $3.60. The race before that sat on the pace when 2nd of 7 at this track on March 28 over 1308m, 2.5 len behind Jack Sixpack carrying 56.5kg at $2.65. Would be better placed in something easier.

Before that raced on speed throughout when 2nd of 7 at Turfway Park on February 21 over 1207m, 2.25 len behind La Belleza Negra carrying 56kg at $3.18. Got the job done last time and is a leading hope again.
