Plainridge Racecourse Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609M

MY BOY ELROY (4) resumes after finishing eighth at his latest appearance at this track on September 29. Has the talent to take this out. CBF SQUIRT GUN (2) resumes from a spell of four-and-a-half months after closing off last campaign in good form, scoring at his last appearance over 1609m at this track. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Sure to prove hard to beat on his return. MAJOR MAKOVER (6) ended last prep with a win at this track over 1609m four-and-a-half months ago. Capable of a forward showing while fresh. BRAZOS (8) is in the mix at his first run since finishing runner-up over 1609m at this track four-and-a-half months ago.
