Western Fair Raceway Race 2

Race 2

Stake: $8,565

TH TRU PLAY (6) made it two on the trot last start when he got the cash by 1.3 metres over 1609m at this track. Meets a similar line up and he is all set to make it a hat-trick. WICKED SMILE (1) was responsible for a very good effort last time over 1609m at this track, finishing second and just 1.3 metres from the winner. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meets a comparable field and he is a strong winning hope. J M MAZINGAN (3) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 8 metres at this track over 1609m. JIMS FIRST DATE (4) resumes. Last appeared when a modest tenth over 1609m at Mohawk Park four months ago. Something for the Multiples: DANCININTHEDARK (2)

Last start good run when 2nd over 1609m at this track was 2nd- at the bell, beaten 1.3 m by Th Tru Play (1:59.20) in G on February 3 at $3.35. Two runs back won by a nose at this track (2:00.30) beating Th Tru Play in G on January 20 at $2.15 at the bell was leading. Going nicely and looks very hard to beat.

Three-year-old colt is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start won by 1.3 m as favourite at this track (1:59.20) beating Wicked Smile in G on February 3 at $1.60 at the bell was leading. Going very well and deserves top billing.

Is on a seven-day back-up and has been racing consistently with 3 consecutive minor placings. Strong performance last time out 3rd over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 3rd- beaten 4 m by Th Tru Play (1:59.20) in G on February 3 at $10.35. Can't recommend him in this.
