Plainridge Racecourse Race 1

1609M

Prize Money: $22,936

LYONS BLEWBYU (5) was responsible for a very good effort last time over 1609m at this track, finishing second and just 0.9 metres from the winner. Taking on a better line-up this time but he good enough to play a major role. SEAFOOD TREASURE (2) finished sixth last start, beaten 45 metres at Saratoga over 1609m. Expecting a very good run. ALTAIR BLUE CHIP (6) should be ready to peak now after finishing third over 1609m at this track a week ago. Expect him to give this a real shake. NEW RESOLUTION (7) cannot be ruled out after breaking her maiden status eight weeks ago over 1609m at Hippodrome 3R.
