Plainridge Racecourse Race 1

1609m

Prize Money: $27,894

DRYDEN HANOVER (5) was responsible for a far better performance last start when he scored by 5 metres over 1609m at this track. Won't find this any harder and he can go right on with the job. BALENCIAGA (1) finished second last start, beaten a neck, in a far better performance at this track over 1609m. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Taking on a better field but he is capable of running another big race. BILL BAUER (3) comes right into contention after scoring last start by a neck at this track over 1609m. SEVEN SINS (4) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound third at Pocono Downs over 1609m.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Chapere at this track over 1609m in a NW5000CD on June 9 at $4.60. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Bill Bauer at this track over 1609m in a NW5000CD on June 23 at $12.80. Has the right credentials to take this out.

Well beaten last start by Dryden Hanover, a rival who he faces again; when 180 metres fifth at this track over 1609m in a NW7500CD race on June 23. Can't see him featuring.

Fair performance when beaten by 6 m finishing fourth behind In A Tiny Way at this track over 1609m in a OPEN 3 on June 9 at $1.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing third behind Mrstery Deal at Pocono Downs over 1609m in a NW10500L5 on June 22 at $11.20. Chief contender.

Didn't do much last time out, 7th (Fr3) over 1609m at Saratoga, beaten 25 m by Wolfpack Zach (1:55.20) in WO/OPENHCP on June 22 at $13.74. Before that 4th (Fr3) over 1609m at Saratoga, beaten 13 m by Wolfpack Zach (1:54.20) in WO/OPENHCP on June 10 at $10.44. Shouldn't trouble the top few.
