Plainridge Racecourse Race 4

1609M

Prize Money: $22,240

HEARTOFGOLD DEVIE (6) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 2.25 metres from the winner in second over 1609m at this track. Meets a similar line up and she can take this out. NOVEL (5) ran third last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 11 metres. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. CHAPERE (3) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 2.25 metres at this track over 1609m. GREY CLOUDS (4) is worth some thought despite his last-start eighth over 1609m at this track on June 16.

Seven-year-old mare showed improvement last time. 2nd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 7 m by Dc Anna (1:55.30) in NW5000CD on June 16 at $36.50. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into sixth behind Novel at this track over 1609m in a NW5000CD on June 2 at $32.90.
