Plainridge Racecourse Race 8 - Race 8 - 1609m
ANTOGNONI S (4) is racing very well this preparation with five wins to his name, the latest effort a success over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway. Meeting a deeper field this time but he good enough to play a major role. LEXUS KODY (1) has been excellent of late and he made it two in a row when successful at his latest appearance over 1609m at Meadowlands, getting home by 0.9 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is capable of another big performance. AETOS KRONOS S (7) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid third at Meadowlands over 1609m. Hard to find fault. UP YOUR DEO (6) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at Meadowlands over 1609m.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start won by a 0.9 m as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:53.10) beating Spaaaanzano in OPEN 1 on June 30 at $1.70. Despite winning form this is likely to prove too tough.

Last start 7th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track well beaten by Kazio (1:53.40) in OPEN HC on June 23 at $48.80. Two runs back 8th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track beaten 55 m by Resolve To Win (1:52.40) in OPEN HC on June 16 at $11.50. Not doing enough to threaten the top few.

Well-beaten 47 days ago at this track over 1609m, and two back 5th (Fr6) over 1609m at Meadowlands beaten 16 m by Periculum (1:49.40) in CUTLER-G3 on May 16 at $64.40. Hard to recommend him on recent form.

Fair run when beaten by 4 m finishing second behind Lexus Kody at Mohawk Park over 1609m in a FFA on June 13 at $3.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing third behind Lexus Kody at Meadowlands over 1609m in a JL CRUZE-G3 on July 4 at $4.40. Capable of taking this out.
