Flamboro Downs Race 3

1609M

Stake: $11,637

ABOVEMYPAYGRADE (6) made it two wins from his last three outings a week ago, getting home by 3 metres over 1609m at this track. Big chance in a similar assignment. CLINTS VETT (1) recorded a strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. Good enough to take out a race like this. MATTS BANK (8) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when second at this track over 1609m. Must be included. WICKED PRINCE (7) is worth some thought after his last-start fourth over 1609m at Mohawk Park on March 8.
