Plainridge Racecourse Race 8 - Race 8 - 1609M

MEMORYNIMAGINATION (8) has been excellent of late and he made it two in a row when successful at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, getting home by 4.5 metres. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Big chance based on recent form. A NEW LEADER (3) is racing well with six top-five finishes in succession, the latest effort a second at this track over 1609m. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Won't find this any harder and he can add to the impressive recent record. MOCHA JAVA (6) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when second at this track over 1609m. Must be included. HEAVENS PIC (1) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Five-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start posted a big 4.5 m win as favourite (Fr6) at this track (1:54.30) beating Mocha Java in OPEN on May 12 at $1.20. Hard to fault on recent form.
