Plainridge Racecourse Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609M
ENHANCE YOURCALM (5) produced a better effort at his latest appearance when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 1.5 metres. Recent efforts are good enough to put him right in the finish. ECHO DE MEAUTIS (3) was successful last time out by 4 metres in a nice return to form at this track over 1609m. Has the benefit of a good draw. Primary contender in this comparable race. BRECKENRIDGE (4) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when third at Philadelphia over 1609m. Must be included. BY THE BOOK (6) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 1.5 metres at this track over 1609m.

Racing consistently with minor placings at her last two starts at this course. Placed last start 3rd (Fr2) over 1609m at this track, beaten 4 m by By The Book (1:54.00) in OPEN on November 13 at $24.80. Before that 2nd (Fr2) over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway, beaten 6 m by No Mas Drama (1:56.00) in FM OPEN on October 5 at $24.40. Will not find this easy. Not keen.

Last start good run when 3rd (Fr2) over 1609m at Philadelphia, beaten 20 m by Pappardelle (1:53.00) in OPEN on November 3 at $45.30. Two runs back won by 8 m (Fr4) at Pocono Downs (1:53.20) beating P L Notsonice in NW12500L4 on October 28 at $2.60. Hard to beat on current form.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing fourth behind Marquis Lafayette at this track over 1609m in a OPEN on November 6 at $6.40. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind By The Book at this track over 1609m in a OPEN on November 13 at $1.60. Well placed, should prove hard to beat.
