Plainridge Racecourse Race 2 - Race 2 - 1609M
SMOOTH LANDING (5) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 6 metres from the winner in fourth over 1609m at this track. Meets a similar line up and he is a strong winning hope. SLICK LEONARD (1) made it two wins from his last four outings a week ago, getting home by 3 metres over 1609m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. This doesn't look as hard so he is a major player again. COACH CALHOUN (6) disappointed last time when eighth over 1609m at this track. Can turn things around. BELLA'S LOVE (2) is the best of the rest after finishing runner-up over 1609m at this track last time out.
