Plainridge Racecourse Race 11

1609m

Prize Money: $15,342

ARYA BLUE CHIP (2) scored last time out by 4 metres at this track over 1609m after an encouraging minor placing the start before. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meets a comparable field and she can make it consecutive wins. CHOICEOFTHETOWN (6) turned in an uncharacteristically poor run last time out when 11 metres away in fifth over 1609m at this track. Tackles a similar assignment and she can turn in a much better performance. SEAFOOD CC (7) is in the mix following a respectable second at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. BETTERTHANHOPE N (5) is worth some thought based on her third over 1609m at this track two runs ago.

Last start 8th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 30 m by Roaring Kitty (1:52.40) on June 8 at $18.60. Two runs back 2nd (Fr5) over 1609m at this track beaten 15 m by Windemere Mae (1:53.10) on June 1 at $4.80. Might find this too tough.

Finished up last campaign with a win at Philadelphia, but hasn't been as effective this campaign with a first-up effort 6th (Fr3) over 1609m at Cumberland Raceway beaten 9 m by Hide The Wick (1:58.00) in W2-4PM on May 23 at $16.20. Then last start 6th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track beaten 17 m by Roaring Kitty (1:52.40) on June 8 at $84. Would like to see her return to winning form before backing.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track, beaten 11 m by Roaring Kitty (1:52.40) on June 8 at $3.20. Showed ability the run before when she posted a big 4 m win (Fr7) at this track (1:54.10) beating Seafood Cc in MTRK<74 on June 1 at $8.30. Genuine contender in this suitable contest.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 2.25 m second behind Roaring Kitty at this track over 1609m MTRK<74 last start. Before that was beaten 4 metres second again at this track same class on June 1. Racing well and not without merit.
