Plainridge Racecourse Race 4

1609m

Prize Money: $21,337

NUMBER SEVEN (5) finished third at Saratoga two runs ago before a less impressive effort at his latest appearance over 1609m at Saratoga, beaten 60 metres. Perfectly placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. FEELING OPTIMISTIC (3) drew a wide gate last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 24 metres into seventh at this track over 1609m. Drawn to advantage on this occasion and is good enough to take out a race like this. PEACH COCKTAIL (1) is in the mix following a respectable third at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. WICKED FUN (7) must be respected after scoring last start by 1.5 metres at this track over 1609m.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 7th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track beaten 24 m by Seven Sins (1:54.20) in NW6000CD on October 30 at $13. The run before 6th (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 17 m by Just Roxy (1:54.20) in NW6000CD on October 15 at $8. Good enough to turn things around.

Last start was well beaten into seventh behind Notatthetablcarlos at Saratoga over 1609m in a WO2-5PM-F on October 26 at $61.22. Raced better the start before that with a solid effort when 3rd (Fr8) over 1609m at Saratoga, beaten 5 m by Notatthetablcarlos (1:57.40) in WO2-5PM-PU on October 19 at $13.64. Capable of taking this out.
