Plainridge Racecourse Race 4 - Race 4 - 1609M

ALWAYS B BEST (3) is in good form at present. Finished fourth at her latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 metres. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Has the class to take care of this field. BETTERTHANHOPE N (5) was responsible for a very good effort last time over 1609m at this track, finishing second and just 0.9 metres from the winner. Tackles a similar assignment and she can take this out. CHOICEOFTHETOWN (7) is one of the main contenders after winning her past two starts, the latest at Saratoga a week ago. Difficult to ignore that sort of form. SEAFOOD CC (2) is the next elect off a last-start win by 9 metres at this track over 1609m.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing seventh behind Trelicious at this track over 1609m on May 18 at $1.40. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Fern Hill Indigo at this track over 1609m on May 25 at $3.90. Should be right in the finish.
