Plainridge Racecourse Race 5

1609M

Prize Money: $30,581

PEPPER WOW (5) finished fifth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 7 metres, after a good win at this track the run prior. Big chance if things go his way. WALL STREET EDGE (3) added to his recent string of strong performances last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 2.25 metres. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Leading hope in a similar race. BRAVADO (6) finished sixth last start over 1609m at this track. Generally runs very well at this circuit so can play a big role. CRUISING TOM (1) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when fifth at this track over 1609m.
