Plainridge Racecourse Race 7 - Race 7 - 1609m

BEANTOWN DRAGON (5) finished sixth last start over 1609m at Northfield Park, beaten 9 metres, after a good third at Northfield Park when resuming from a spell the run prior. Must raise the bar but he has the ability to test this field. WHISKEY VENOM (6) was successful at his most recent outing by 6 metres in a nice return to form at this track over 1609m. Taking on a better field but he is good enough to cope. THE UNIT (1) must be considered after he finished third over 1609m at this track a week ago. COLNAGO (4) could only finish sixth over 1609m at this track most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix.
