Plainridge Racecourse Race 1 - Race 1 - 1609m
EAGER BEAVER (3) finished third last time out, beaten 2.25 metres, in a nice return to form at this track over 1609m. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Must raise the bar but a win is not out of the question. GRACIES TOUGH GUY (7) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 6 metres from the winner in fifth over 1609m at this track. Has to contend with a very wide draw. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. MANASOTA (4) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 22 metres at this track over 1609m. COLNAGO (5) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Backing up quickly since being well beaten this track over 1609m, 7 days ago and two back 4th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 11 m by Dead Mans Chain (1:52.30) in NW2PMLT on July 9 at $14.50. Likely to struggle again.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Montana at this track over 1609m in a NW4PMLT on July 9 at $46.90. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing third behind Nathan's Honor at this track over 1609m in a W2-6PMCD on July 16 at $5.60. Capable of taking this out.

Recent efforts have been impressive. Last start posted a big 22 m win (Fr3) at this track (1:56.10) beating Pastrnak in NW1PMLT on July 16 at $6. No surprise if he made it two on the trot.

Didn't do much last time out, 7th (Fr8) over 1609m at Saratoga beaten 23 m by Original Music (1:55.20) in NW2PMCD on July 11 at $40.02. Before that 5th (Fr4) over 1609m at Saratoga beaten 35 m by Many Moons Ago (1:54.40) in NW2PMCD on June 30 at $7.36. Better off investing elsewhere.
