Plainridge Racecourse Race 5

1609m

Stake: $38,955

BORNINLOCKDOWN (5) was struggling to make his mark before the latest appearance when he scored by 1.5 metres over 1609m at this track. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is up to the challenge. WILD BILL WYATT (3) ran fourth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 19 metres. Expected to run well. PRICE CONTROL (6) has a strong record here so must be a chance on the back of a good win over 1609m at this track last time. LIFES A PUZZLE (4) is worth some thought based on his third over 1609m at this track two runs ago. Something for the Multiples: BORNINLOCKDOWN GB (5)

Racing consistently with minor placings at his last two starts. Placed last start 2nd (Fr2) over 1609m at Tioga Downs beaten 5 m by Melanion (1:51.20) in NW10001-4 on July 19 at $3.45. Before that 3rd (Fr5) over 1609m at Philadelphia, beaten 6 m by Big Bang Bang (1:50.10) in NW10000L5 on June 21 at $4.50. Happy to risk.
