Plainridge Racecourse Race 4 - Race 4 - 1609m

ALEX HAVING FUN (2) filled a minor placing at this track two runs ago before finishing sixth at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 metres. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Meets a comparable field and he is capable of another bold performance. MAKORORI N (1) was successful at his most recent outing by 14 metres in a far better performance at this track over 1609m. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Must raise the bar but another win is not out of the question. KILL A DRAGON (4) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid fourth at this track over 1609m. Hard to find fault. CALL ME MAVERICK (5) is the next elect off a last-start win by 2.25 metres at this track over 1609m.

Comes here in the right form. Posted a big 6 m win (Fr2) at Philadelphia (1:51.20) beating Ante Up Hanover in NW7500L5 on August 16 at $2.50. Two runs back 3rd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, beaten 10 m by Vanderbilt (1:50.10) in NW7500CD on August 3 at $2.90. Would rather see in something easier.
