Grand River Raceway Race 3

Race 3

Stake: $5,108

MAXIMUS BG (5) ran third last start at Flamboro Downs over 1609m, beaten 6 metres. This should be an easier assignment so he is set to play a significant role. MALVOLIO (1) ran fifth last start at Clinton Raceway over 1609m, beaten 5 metres. Has ability and should be right in the finish. THE DARK PANTHER (4) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Flamboro Downs. BLAKESAGENT (3) is worth some thought after his last-start sixth over 1609m at Kawartha Downs on May 17.
