Plainridge Racecourse Race 3 - Race 3 - 1609M

SONNY BLACK (4) has had two runs this prep without filling a placing. Added to the sequence last time over 1609m at this track, finishing 19 metres away from the winner in fifth. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is good enough to play a major role. GENERAL MONTANA N (6) is racing well with four top-five finishes in succession, the latest effort a second at this track over 1609m. Stepping up a level this time but he is good enough to take this out. GALACTIC STORM (8) has a strong record here which is significant. Finished eighth over 1609m at this track last time out. TWIN B JAYS (2) is the next elect off a last-start win by 3 metres at Cumberland Raceway over 1609m.
