Plainridge Racecourse Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609m
LEFTIES RIGHTIES (2) has been a bit hot and cold and that continued last start when he finished third, beaten 6 metres, in a better performance at Yonkers Raceway over 1609m. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. His recent form is good enough to put him right in the finish. PONDA ROCKY (5) finished third last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 19 metres, after also filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 1609m at this track. Good enough to put himself in the winners' stall. UNHINGED (6) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 1609m at this track last time out. CHAPHEART (4) is the best of the rest after finishing fourth over 1609m at this track last time out.

Fair run when beaten by 3 m finishing fourth behind Exquisite Taste at Yonkers Raceway over 1609m in a NW15661L5 on June 12 at $1.66. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind My Man Peter at Yonkers Raceway over 1609m in a NW16771L5 on June 19 at $3.68. One of the key runners.
