Fort Erie Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming

AWE INSPIRED (3) has switched yards since scoring by 0.3 lengths at this track over 1006m on September 7. Expecting a seamless transition. HEAT MERCHANT (1) is yet to find the winners' list this time in work but has four placings from eight runs this prep, finishing 1.4 lengths away in third most recently over 1308m at this track. Great chance to take this out. A LA CARTE (6) did a great job to score by 2.5 lengths over this course and distance last time out to continue his outstanding recent form. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat again in this suitable race. COOLER MAN (5) was comfortably accounted for when fifth last time out over 1106m at this track, beaten 5 lengths, after a win at this track at the previous outing. In the mix.

Form hard to fault. Most recently 2nd in a small field at this track on September 15 over 1207m, 2.5 len behind A La Carte with 56kg at $3.90. The race before that 2nd in a small field at this track on August 31 over 1207m, nose behind Bongino carrying 56kg at $5.50. Definite winning chance. Keep safe.
