Plainridge Racecourse Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609m
COLNAGO (5) drew wide last start and was safely held, beaten 25 metres into sixth at this track over 1609m. Meets a comparable field and he can turn in a much better performance. CAVIART TUCKER (4) finished third last start, beaten 17 metres at this track over 1609m. Talented and has plenty of upside. Expect him to be prominent. DREAMERS DUE (6) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 3 metres at Bangor Raceway over 1609m. PASTRNAK (3) is worth some thought despite his last-start seventh over 1609m at this track on June 26.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Smile Happy at this track over 1609m in a NW2PMLT on June 11 at $13.40. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind The Unit at this track over 1609m in a NW1PMLT on June 26 at $38.90. Big run expected.

Last start was well beaten into sixth behind The Unit at this track over 1609m in a NW1PMLT on June 26 at $57.30. Raced better the start before that with a game effort when 2nd (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 5 m by Manasota (1:56.20) in MAIDEN on June 19 at $5.70. Well placed, should prove hard to beat.
