Plainridge Racecourse Race 1

1609m

Prize Money: $18,056

CD FLETCH (4) has drawn wide in recent runs. Failed to feature last time out when sixth over 1609m at Tioga Downs. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is up to the challenge. PASTRNAK (2) turned in another strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Meets a similar line up and he is a strong winning hope. BETTOR'S GOLD (5) is in the mix following a fourth at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. PERFECTLY LOVELY (6) is a chance after finishing in the money for the second time in a row last start, beaten 7 metres into third at this track.

Has been mixing his form of late, most recently 4th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 21 m by Rust (1:54.00) in CGNW1PMLT on September 7 at $9.90. Before that 5th (Fr3) over 1609m at Bangor Raceway beaten 40 m by Real Horrorshow (2:00.20) in ME SS3CP on July 19. This looks too tough.

Fair run when beaten by 4.5 m finishing third behind Dreamers Due at this track over 1609m in a MASS BRED on August 4 at $4.90. Then a handy effort when beaten by 7 m finishing third behind Pastrnak at this track over 1609m in a MASS BRED on August 11 at $8. Perfectly placed to win.
