Western Fair Raceway Race 5 - Race 5
ESQUIRE (9) finished fifth last start over 1609m at Flamboro Downs, beaten 6 metres. Best recent result was a win at Flamboro Downs three starts ago over 1609m. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. This is a nice drop in grade so he is a major player. HOUSTON SEELSTER (7) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 4.5 metres from the winner in fifth over 1609m at this track. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Has the talent to take this out. COMING FASHION (1) is on the radar after his last-start fourth over 1609m at this track two weeks ago. MYRETIREMENTDREAM (2) is in the mix after turning in a better effort last start to finish second at this track over 1609m.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4.5 m fifth behind Livingitlarge at this track over 1609m last start. Before that was beaten one metre second again at this track same class on January 20. Rates highly so expect a bold run.

The start before 8th over 1609m at Flamboro Downs was 8th- at the bell, beaten 12 m by Masterwork (1:58.20) on January 22 at $5.20. Good enough to make amends in this line-up.
