Flamboro Downs Race 5 - Race 5
CASTELLANO (5) Was rock solid when winning by 10.75m last start at Hippodrome 3r and hard to fault at the trip. Won't be far away during the run. Very hard to beat. BUFFED (1) Backing up quickly for this race. Honest race when 3rd last run at this venue and gets a favourable draw. Will be positive in the run early. One of the main dangers. IRISH EXIT (3) Close to a win last run at Kawartha Downs. Solid place bet prospects. LEAGUE MVP (4) Flashed home late into 3rd beaten by 8.5m last time at the track and was a debutant last start. Should come to hand quickly. Not hopeless.

On a quick back up. Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last run at this track and can save some energy from the alley. Expecting to settle positively. Can go close.

At $24.00 ran 6th last run around here. Likely to get back. Most likely not today.

Good run when finishing 3rd last time here and having second race start. Should race on the speed. Prefer in something easier.

Thrashed the field when winning by a margin of 10.75m last start at Hippodrome 3r and proven performer at this trip. Has plenty of early speed. Going well this campaign. Entitled to prove too strong for most of these.
