Independence Day 2014

On this Fourth of July, 2014, we look North of the border for a fabulous Turf race.

Woodbine Race 8 (1 mile~TURF~3 year old Up~Allowance}
A superb field of ten will take to the beautiful Woodbine Turf course in this feature allowance race.  There is plenty of speed to heat up the pace.  A hot pace will certainly benefit those coming from off that pace.  It should be a great race.

#7 Say Ow (Sutherland Kruse / Mattine) could have a slight edge with the highest last out speed number, a five race progression, and two strong workouts.  This lad is coming off an extended layoff where he was last seen on the Santa Anita dirt.  He could benefit with a tracking running style.
$1 SHOW.

#10 Flashlight [IRE] (Contreras / Lynch) is coming off an even longer layoff, but has done well off of such before.  Prior to the layoff he holds the fourth highest last out speed number, was working a two race progression, and has put in four supreme workouts.  Expect him to be forwardly placed ready to strike in the stretch.
$1 SHOW.

#8 Unbridled Fire (Moran / Simon) should be able to post a quality effort with a couple of good last out speed numbers and three robust peaking workouts.  This guy holds the second highest speed number at the distance.  He should be able to track and close valiantly.
$1 SHOW.

Other Wagering Interests

#5 Sachem Spirit (Da Silva / Casse) should be in the mix coming off a long layoff as he has done well off a previous layoffs.  Prior to the layoff he had a couple of good speed numbers and has put in three stellar workouts.  As a tracker, he should benefit from a hot pace.

#4 Money Talker (Campbell / S. Attard) should be in the hunt with  a couple of good last out speed numbers and two hearty workouts.  This guy holds the highest speed number at the distance and will be running late into the stretch.
