Plainridge Racecourse Race 1 - Race 1 - 1609m
PATRIKTHEPIRANHA A (3) turned in a better run last start when second over 1609m at this track, beaten 4.5 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish again. FORWARD LOOK (2) was struggling to make his mark before the latest appearance when he scored by 4.5 metres over 1609m at Cumberland Raceway. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meeting a deeper field this time but he good enough to play a major role. GALACTIC STORM (1) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when he finished third at Vernon Downs over 1609m. WARRAWEE YALE (6) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.5 m third behind Bluesville at Vernon Downs over 1609m OPEN last start. Before that was beaten 1.5 metres second again at Vernon Downs same class on July 10. Racing well and not without merit.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Kill A Dragon at this track over 1609m in a STRÂ ALL on July 19 at $9.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Vintage Cheddar at this track over 1609m on July 27 at $127.60. Nice effort last time. Big chance.

Racing consistently with minor placings at his last two starts at this course. Placed last start 2nd (Fr6) over 1609m at this track beaten 0.8 m by Waterfront (1:51.20) in NW5000CD on July 27 at $16.10. Before that 3rd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 10 m by Rifleman (1:51.10) in NW5000CD on July 16 at $2.40. Will need plenty of improvement to feature.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following July 16 run. Last start won by 3 m as favourite (Fr6) at this track (1:51.20) beating Major Betts in NW3000CD on July 23 at $2. This race will be harder than that win. A podium finish would surprise.
