Woodbine Race 8

Claiming

Stake: -

FRANKNESS (5) Finished hard to win last time at this track and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Displays good tactical speed. Worth strong consideration. MAY AND JUNE (1) Was quite a handful for the competition when 2nd last time at this venue and lining up against easier rivals. Has shown early pace in races to date. Drawn beautifully. Respect against this field. WELL LIT (2) Was found wanting late when 4th last time at this venue and gets a favourable draw. Facing a stronger group of contenders. Will be there at the finish. TIMEFRAME (3) Did well to place 2nd beaten by 3L last start at the track. Exotics hope in this event.

Even though peaking on the run still grabbed 2nd beaten by 3 1/4L last time at this venue and challenged by less formidable competitors. Will appreciate a good draw. Competitive type.

Jumped at $6.00 and outmatched in the closing stages when 4th last time at the track and will try to take advantage of the draw. Facing stiffer opposition. Significant value and can go close.

At $7.50 weakened to finish 5th last time around here but taking on a lower class of opponents. Shows good early pace. Rico W Walcott is a plus. Cannot recommend as a betting proposition.

Odds of $27.00 and lost ground in the run home when 9th last run here and back in trip. Taking on stronger opponents. Has to have a lot go its way.
