Woodbine Race 8 - Bet365 Grey S. Stakes
FREEDOM HALL (7) Set the tempo to win by 5 1/4L last run at Presque Isle Downs and solid career start. Maintaining a perfect record the last 2 runs. Will be there at the finish. UNCLE DODO (3) Produced an eye catching run when 2nd beaten by 5 3/4L last start at this track and facing less formidable opponents. In fine form since coming back from a spell. Expect to go close. SPEAKER'S SPEECH (2) Finished strongly when 3rd beaten by 3 1/4L last run at this track and competing in an easier class. Been in the placegetters each attempt this campaign. Good chance of threatening these. KING'S COUNSEL (4) Ran 5th last start around here. Should improve here and showing consistent performance in races. Should come to hand quickly. In a purple patch of form this campaign. Can measure up to this company.

Odds of $35.00 and not in contention when 6th last start at the track but going down in class. Gets the perfect gate. Unlikely to go close.

Was amongst the placegetters when 3rd last run here and stepping down to a lower level. Has not missed the placings this campaign in 2 attempts. Going up in trip. Gets a chance against these.

Came on strongly when 2nd last start around here and taking on a lower class of opponents. Producing consistent results since returning from a break. Definite claims for punters.

Jumped at $5.50 and came in 5th last start around here. Should improve here and good career start. Should muster plenty of early toe. Showing good ability this campaign. Strong claims.

Ran on when 2nd last start here. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Prefer a race with softer competition.

Stormed home to win last time at Churchill Downs but facing a stronger class. Expected to be flashing home. Worth a serious look.

Took charge of the race when winning by a margin of 5 1/4L last run at Presque Isle Downs and promising career start. Undefeated last 2 attempts. Definite claims.
