NEXT FAIRVIEW RACEMEETING FRIDAY 10 MAY MR 74 HANDICAP 1600m

Track: AW      

Fast tempo assured with Jaspero, Downing Seven and Indy View going at each other early in the piece. HAWK CIRCLE (10) received a check leaving the start last time and stayed on well to finish fifth of eight over 1200m. His previous two efforts were good. Both his career victories have come over this distance and has winning claims here. GUERRA (8) ran a good race when second over 1400m on the turf last time. Rates well as an each-way chance. DOWNING SEVEN (2) finished second at this track two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 1900m at this track, finishing 6 lengths back in seventh. Has the talent to take care of this field. INDY VIEW (3) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when ninth over 1900m at this track. Cherry-ripe now and should prove hard to beat.
