Plainridge Racecourse Race 5

1609M

Stake: $24,771

STORYBOOK BELLA (6) is in good form at present. Finished second at her latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 0.8 metres. It doesn't get any easier but on her best form she is good enough to take this out. FERN HILL INDIGO (5) produced a better effort last start, finishing third over 1609m at this track. Won't find this any harder and she can find the winners' circle. ROARING KITTY (4) is in the mix following a sixth at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. PREMIER STAR (3) must be included after winning her past two starts, the latest at this track nine days ago.
