Hawthorne Race 6 - Race 6 - Claiming
GRAND ILLUSION (1) is putting together some solid results. Finished second at this track (Turf) two starts back then landed the prize by 2.25 lengths as public elect last time out over 1509m at this track (Turf). Alexander Bendezu scored on him last time and retains the mount. It doesn't get any easier but on current form he is capable of testing his rivals. MAN ON ATTACK (8) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing third over 1609m at this track (Turf) when he was in the firing line all the way. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. BRIT BLITZ (5) hasn't made an impression lately despite market confidence. Last start could only manage seventh over 1609m at Canterbury Park (Turf). Look for a better run this time out. PAW ALLEN (4) was safely held when eighth last time out over 1609m at this track, beaten 10 lengths, after a win at Canterbury Park at the previous outing. Finds a suitable race and can run a bold race.
