Plainridge Racecourse Race 1 - Race 1 - 1609M

LAURENS HOOPLA (4) resumes after finishing fourth at her latest appearance at this track on November 24. Finds a suitable assignment and will take plenty of beating. JOEY BATS (7) resumes from a spell of five months after closing off last campaign in good form, the last run being a solid third over 1609m at this track. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position. Will have plenty of admirers. LIKE A WARRIOR (8) is having his first run back from a break of five months. Boasts a record of three wins from four starts when fresh from a spell. Must overcome a very wide draw. Well-placed to open this prep with a win. BARRANCOS (5) ended last prep with a second at Vernon Downs over 1609m. Capable of a forward showing while fresh.
