Fort Erie Race 4 - Le Cinquieme Essai Cup S. Stakes

GAROFOLI (5) scored a dirt track win two back over 1106m at Delaware Park then followed up with a minor placing on turf over 1006m at Woodbine most recently. Has a strong record at this course, scoring four times from six starts. Will be hard to stop. PAT'S GAMBLE (2) has built a long sequence of minor placings, the latest a second over 1308m at this track. Goes well at this distance including two wins so he is expected to measure up. YOUR VALENTINO (1) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1207m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being prominent at the bend. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he deserves plenty of thought. ALWAYS A WAY (6) ran below expectations last time at Woodbine All Weather over 1408m, finishing sixth and beaten 4 lengths. Form at this track is solid. Not to be discounted.

The run before that 2nd in a small field at Fort Erie Turf on July 21 over 1308m, 0.3 len behind Lasting Silence carrying 55.5kg at $3.20. Close to a win. Should run well again.
