Fair Grounds Race 7 - Race 7 - Maiden Special Weight
CASTLE RUN (2) sat just off the speed and fought on well to finish third when resuming last start at this course and distance. Blinkers are added so with added fitness he looms as a big threat. RAZORCAT (4) finished second first-up at this track then couldn't repeat the dose last time when fourth at this track (Turf) over 1106m when beaten 1.2 lengths. Great chance to break through. FANCY FAIRLANE (8) has not raced since he finished second on debut over 1207m at Fairgrounds on December 20. Solid top-three hope. ICE WOLF (6) is a seven-start maiden who is knocking on the door, the latest effort a solid second at this track (Turf) over 1106m after he worked home well. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. Something for the Multiples: UNITAS (7)

Was well-supported at debut, second last in a small field at Fairgrounds on January 24 over 1207m, 8 len behind Favorite Day with 56.5kg at $3.20. Encouraging signs on debut but this looks a tough assignment.
