Western Fair Raceway Race 9

Race 9

Stake: $7,097

NIGHT TRAIN (2) added to his recent string of strong performances last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 3 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Won't find this any harder and he can add to the solid recent record. ALLSTAR BRUISER (4) ran third last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 4 metres. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. JIMMY HOOFFA (8) is in the mix at his first run since finishing fifth over 1609m at this track four months ago. TF THUNDERSTRUCK (5) is the next elect off a last-start win by 1.3 metres at this track over 1609m.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Th Tru Play at this track over 1609m in a G on January 27 at $6.90. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Poppa Joe at this track over 1609m in a G on February 4 at $5. Strong winning hope.

Last start 6th over 1609m at this track beaten 20 m by Never Assume (2:02.10) in G on January 27 at $48.65. Two runs back 8th over 1609m at this track was 8th- at the bell, beaten 19 m by Buzz Lightyear (1:58.40) in G on January 13 at $27.95. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten.
