Plainridge Racecourse Race 3

1609m

Prize Money: $16,736

SONNY BLACK (6) turned in a much better run at his latest appearance, finishing third over 1609m at this track. Meets a comparable field so he is capable of taking this out. NOLAUGHINGSTOCK (4) scored at this track three runs ago but has been unplaced in two subsequent runs, the latest when fourth over 1609m at this track, beaten 10 metres. Meets a comparable field and he can find winning ways. DANCE MONKEY (3) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when he finished second at this track over 1609m. ISAAC (1) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Th Kay C Crunch at this track over 1609m in a NW2500CD on May 29 at $74.10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third behind Kill A Dragon at this track over 1609m on June 8 at $5.10. Strong winning hope.
