Plainridge Racecourse Race 3 - Race 3 - 1609M
POPPY WOW (5) scored at this track two runs ago before having her colours lowered when third at her latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 8 metres. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a major role. HEARTOFGOLD DEVIE (2) was once again right in the mix last start when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 0.8 metres. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Meets a comparable field so she can go one better this time around. LAURENS HOOPLA (4) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 4 metres at this track over 1609m. AND UP WE GO (1) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 14 metres at this track over 1609m.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing second behind The World Owes Me at this track over 1609m on May 12 at $2.20. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Get Outa My Lane at this track over 1609m in a NW2500CD on May 19 at $4. In fine form. Winning hope.
