Plainridge Racecourse Race 1 - Race 1 - 1609m

CALL ME MAVERICK (5) turned in yet another strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track, adding to a string of recent minor placings. Meets a similar line up and he can take this out. PATRIKTHEPIRANHA A (6) was racing with great purpose before the latest appearance when he finished 3 metres away in third over 1609m at this track. Primary contender in this comparable race. KILL A DRAGON (1) is the next elect off a last-start win by 15 metres at this track over 1609m. ANVIL HANDS (4) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fourth at this track over 1609m.
