Plainridge Racecourse Race 3

1609m

Stake: $25,678

JEFFREY NEIL (8) recorded a strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position. Taking on a better field but he is good enough to take this out. I'LLSTANDMYGROUND (4) ran fifth last start at Pocono Downs over 1609m, beaten 25 metres. Talented and has plenty of upside. Expect her to pose a serious challenge. PEACE FIELD (6) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid fifth at this track over 1609m. Hard to find fault. BREWSTER BAKER (5) is worth some thought despite his last-start seventh over 1609m at this track on August 4.

Didn't do much at the last run, 5th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 25 m by Conservative Plan (1:56.20) in NW1PMLT on August 4 at $11.20. Before that 8th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track beaten 85 m by Essential (1:54.30) in NW1PMLT on July 28 at $11.60. Better off looking to others.

Improved last start with a good run when 2nd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 0.9 m by Manhattan Moni (1:54.00) in NW3000CD on July 20 at $5. One of the key runners.
