Woodbine Race 7 - Bet365 Algonquin S. Stakes
EXCESSIF (6) Gave away some ground when 7th last start at Colonial Downs. Has the ability to turn things around but facing stiffer opposition. Definite claims. LOU'S ROOM (2) Close to a win last time at Saratoga and can find a nice position from the draw. Sahin Civaci and George Weaver form a proven partnership. Racing in stronger company. Looks a great place bet. GO FOR LAUNCH (4) Finished well when winning last start at Saratoga but stepping up to a higher level. Unbeaten this campaign with 2 wins from as many starts. Should come to hand quickly. Must respect in this event. ALLURA (5) Grabbed towards the finish when 2nd last run at Saratoga but testing ability against stronger contenders. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Goes close.

Was agonizingly close last start here and having second career run. Should be swooping on the field late. Has a nice advantage with a good draw. Down in distance. Could not recommend in this.

Missed by a narrow margin last time at Saratoga and drawn nicely. Sahin Civaci and George Weaver have shared plenty of success together. Competing in a higher grade. Should be in the finish.

Maintained a solid pace but eventually weakened to finish 3rd last time at the track and putting a tidy record together so far. Coming back in distance. Hard to have.

Reeled them in when winning last start at Saratoga but up against stronger opponents. Ultra competitive this campaign with 2 wins from as many runs. Should go very close.

Was quite a handful for the competition when 2nd last run at Saratoga but challenged by a tougher grade. Won't be far away during the run. Genuine claims.

Started at $5.00 and weakened under pressure when 7th last start at Colonial Downs. Has the ability to turn things around but facing a stronger group of contenders. Strong claims.
