Plainridge Racecourse Race 5

1609m

Prize Money: $38,354

CATALPA RESCUE A (5) recent form has been very consistent. Scored at his latest appearance over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway, getting home by 0.6 metres. This is a nice drop in grade so he is sure to prove tough to beat. FOR ONCE INMY LIFE (6) scored last time out by 9 metres in a far better performance at this track over 1609m. Primary contender in a similar race. ROCKIN ON VENUS (1) scored last start over 1609m at this track. Generally runs very well at this circuit so can play a big role again. TWO FOLD COLD (3) finished third at this track last time. Consistent and deserves respect.
