Grand River Raceway Race 10

Race 10

Stake: $7,007

MAGICAL ARTHUR (2) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 4 metres from the winner in fourth over 1609m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Leading hope based on those recent efforts. COALITION HANOVER (1) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 2.25 metres from the winner in fourth over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Leading hope based on those recent efforts. LIBERTY ROYAL (6) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. ROSE RUN VORTEX (4) is worth some thought after his last-start fifth over 1609m at Hanover Raceway on June 28.
