Plainridge Racecourse Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609m
ALAMO MISSION (4) was 6 metres away in third at this track over 1609m last start at his first run back from a spell. That latest effort is good enough to win a race of this calibre. BILL BAUER (5) scored at this track three runs ago but has been unplaced in two subsequent runs, the latest when fourth over 1609m at this track, beaten 21 metres. Meets a similar line up and he is capable of another bold performance. WALL STREET EDGE (3) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid third at this track over 1609m. Hard to find fault. BALENCIAGA (1) is the best of the rest after finishing third over 1609m at this track last time out.

Two back was well beaten into sixth behind Morning Edition at this track over 1609m in a OPEN 3 on June 30 at $6. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing third behind Sunburnt Silverado at this track over 1609m in a NW5000CD on July 14 at $7.10. This race appears well within his grasp.

Promising type show didn't do much at the end of his last preparation. Fair return to racing first up solid effort when 3rd (Fr5) over 1609m at this track beaten 6 m by Joyous Spirit (1:54.30) in NW6PMLT on June 23 at $2.60. Capable of a strong showing.
