Plainridge Racecourse Race 10

1609m

Prize Money: $33,046

FULL METAL JACKET (4) ran eighth last start at Saratoga over 1609m, beaten 9 metres. Taking on a better field but he is up to the task. HUNTING ZONE (5) finished fourth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 6 metres, after a good win at this track the run prior. Finds a tougher race but a better run is on the cards. STILL ROLLIN N (3) is usually thereabouts and looks a strong winning hope this time following a last-start third at this track. Rarely lets backers down. SOUTHPAW (8) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fifth at this track over 1609m. Something for the Multiples: JM'S DELIGHT (2)
