Plainridge Racecourse Race 10 - Race 10 - 1609M
VINTAGE CHEDDAR N (3) again drew a wide gate last start and was safely held, beaten 19 metres into seventh at this track over 1609m. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. His recent form is not a true indication. Good enough to put himself right in the finish. TORRID SAINT A (1) resumes here after closing his last campaign with a eighth at this track on September 22. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. GREY HORIZON (4) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 1609m at this track last time out. VANDERBILT N (8) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fourth at Tioga Downs over 1609m.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 7th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track beaten 19 m by Franco Tyson (1:52.00) in NW10000CD on May 14 at $24.40. The run before 9th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track beaten 24 m by Hes Coming On (1:52.40) in NW10000CD on May 7 at $31.60. Watch for a far better effort this time.

Failed to impress last start; 8th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track beaten 23 m by Franco Tyson (1:52.00) in NW10000CD on May 14 at $52. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 1.5 m (Fr1) at this track (1:52.10) beating Patrikthepiranha in NW5000CD on May 5 at $6.30. Genuine chance.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 3 m second behind Anvil Hands at this track over 1609m NW5000CD last start. Before that was beaten 4.5 metres fourth again at this track same class on May 5. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.

Seven-year-old gelding showed improvement last start. 2nd (Fr4) over 1609m at Saratoga beaten 6 m by Its Electrifying (1:53.00) in NW7500L5CD on May 16 at $10.20. The race before was not as impressive when beaten by 3 m finishing fourth behind Mayweather Hanover at Saratoga over 1609m in a NW7500L5CD on May 9 at $13.46. Form reads okay, but out of his depth.
