Race 4

Stake: $17,352

PLAY ME ROCK (4) finished third last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 4.5 metres. Best recent result was a win at this track three starts ago. Finds a nice race and can turn things around. NOBLESVILLE (3) finished sixth last start, beaten 13 metres at this track over 1609m. Expect him to be prominent. AVANTI (5) disappointed last time when eighth over 1609m at this track. Can turn things around. PINEBUSHDRAGONROLL (6) disappointed last time when ninth over 1609m at this track. Can do a lot better so worth considering.
