Plainridge Racecourse Race 3

1609m

Prize Money: $14,368

TORRID SAINT A (5) has recorded two wins and three minor placings from the past five starts. Added to the list last start when he scored over 1609m at this track, getting home by 3 metres. Has the ability to add to the impressive recent tally. ODDS ON LAUDERDALE (4) missed the placings for the second time in a row at the most recent outing when 13 metres away in sixth over 1609m at this track. Recent form includes a win at this track three starts back on September 14. Finds a suitable assignment and can make amends. INSTANT REPLAY (2) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 1609m at this track last time out. SANDPIPER N (1) is worth some thought despite his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track on October 6.

10-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start won by 3 m (Fr5) at this track (1:51.40) beating General Montana in 10000CLHC on October 2 at $3.40. Hard to fault on recent form.
