Plainridge Racecourse Race 3 - Race 3 - 1609M

ELAN HANOVER (5) was 18 metres away in third at Philadelphia over 1609m last start at his first run back from a spell. That latest effort is good enough to put him right in the finish. STOCKHOLM HANOVER (1) ran fourth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 15 metres. Expect him to be prominent. DEMIMOND (4) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 10 metres at this track over 1609m. JOYOUS SPIRIT (3) must be considered after she finished third when resuming over 1609m at this track a week ago.
