Plainridge Racecourse Race 7 - Race 7 - 1609M
FLYING FINN N (2) turned in another strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to finish second over 1609m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. Good enough to put himself back in the winners' stall. BETTOR CAT (1) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 6 metres from the winner in third over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Good enough to take out a race like this. BOYD BAY (5) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at this track a week ago. LOU ED ZEPPELIN (4) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when second at this track over 1609m.
