Plainridge Racecourse Race 1

1609m

Prize Money: $35,920

SILVER SANDS (3) finished third last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 22 metres, after a modest fourth at this track the run prior. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Finds a suitable assignment and can turn things around. VERA (4) finished fourth last start, beaten 25 metres at this track over 1609m. Talented and has plenty of upside. Expecting a very good run. BEANTOWN BIG AL (2) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when fifth at this track over 1609m. Must be included. GOLD BULLION (1) is worth some thought despite his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track on October 19.

Fair run when beaten by 6 m finishing fourth behind Chase News Network at this track over 1609m in a MASS STK on October 5 at $3.50. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Lindy Believer at this track over 1609m in a MASS STK on October 19. Genuine contender in this suitable contest.
