Plainridge Racecourse Race 1

1609m

Prize Money: $20,833

KINGMAKER (5) was successful at his most recent outing by 1.5 metres at this track over 1609m after an encouraging minor placing the start before. Won't find this any harder and he can make it two on the trot. PEACE FIELD (4) was out of the money two back at this track. Turned in a better run last time out when second over 1609m at this track, beaten 1.5 metres. Meets a similar line up and she can play a big role. I LIKE GREEN (3) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 5 metres at this track over 1609m. CONSERVATIVE PLAN (6) is close to a win after two successive placings, the latest a third over 1609m at this track.

Hard to fault of late. Last start posted a big 5 m win as favourite (Fr6) at this track (1:58.00) beating Beyond The Rules in ROMPER RM on September 10 at $1.30. Hard to beat in this sort of form.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Brewster Baker at this track over 1609m in a NW2PMLT on August 25 at $8.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Kingmaker at this track over 1609m in a NW2PMLT on September 3 at $9.10. Chief contender.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4 m third behind Kingmaker at this track over 1609m NW2PMLT last start. Before that was beaten 1.5 metres second again at this track same class on August 25. Racing well and not without merit.
