Plainridge Racecourse Race 8

1609M

Stake: $18,166

SPORTSNEST (4) registered a strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track. Tackles a similar assignment and he can take this out. CHARIOT DRIVE (7) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 4 metres from the winner in third over 1609m at this track. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Big chance based on recent form. COOL YOUR HEELS (5) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at this track. Can atone. GET ALONG (6) is in the mix if he can recapture the form from two starts back that saw him finish third over 1609m at this track.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Lone Survivor at this track over 1609m on July 8 at $6.10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing second behind Real Thing at Bangor Raceway over 1609m in a TM 70 on July 16 at $4.10. Rates highly.

Has been racing well this preparation and showed plenty of improvement following July 3 run. Last start posted a big 6 m win (Fr5) at this track (1:54.40) beating Some Attitude in TRK<67 on July 17 at $4. This race will be harder than that win.
