Flamboro Downs Race 2 - Race 2
CAST OF FOUR (1) 2yo by Big Jim having first race appearance for Michael J Kwietniowski and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Market as guide. LOYAL TOTHE VALLEY (3) First appearance at the races 2yo by Betterthancheddar for trainer Rod V Boyd. Betting as a guide. ANOTHER RAINYNIGHT (8) Weakened under pressure when 6th last run at this track. Has the potential to improve sharply. One of the major players. PICKLED PEPPER (7) Narrowly denied a win last start at Western Fair Raceway. Worth a ticket.

2yo first starter sired by Big Jim for Michael J Kwietniowski and will appreciate a good draw. Watch for a sign in the market.

Odds of $72.00 and finished 7th last time at Woodbine Mohawk Park. Likely to be well placed early. Very unlikely to cause an upset.
