Plainridge Racecourse Race 11

1609M

Prize Money: $16,820

NORTHERN SULTAN (1) has been racing well, filling a top-five position at his last five starts including a third most recently at this track over 1609m. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Meets a comparable field and he can add to the impressive recent record. MOUTHPIECE (2) drew a wide gate last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 30 metres into seventh at this track over 1609m. Big chance from this favourable draw if he gets the right breaks. JERICHO (4) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. AND UP WE GO (5) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at this track over 1609m.
