Plainridge Racecourse Race 6 - Race 6 - 1609m
DEAD MANS CHAIN (4) is in good form with top-five finishes at his last eight starts, most recently recording a second over 1609m at Saratoga. This should be an easier assignment so he is a major player again. LYONS BLEWBYU (2) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 8 metres at this track over 1609m. BE READY TO ROCK (3) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at this track over 1609m. Something for the Multiples: LYONS HONEYMONSTER (8)

Last start 5th (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, beaten 11 m by Set Shot (1:51.10) in W2-5PMLT on August 17 at $10.60. Two runs back 4th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track beaten 8 m by Be Ready To Rock (1:51.10) in NW4PMLT on July 30 at $10.60. Hard to envisage a win.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished a narrow second behind Somehacksomewhere at Saratoga over 1609m WO2-5PM-F last start. Before that was beaten 1.5 metres second again at Saratoga in WO2-5PM-PU on July 25. Winning chance.

Didn't do much last time out, 7th (Fr1) over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway well beaten by Samhara (1:52.40) in NW5321L5 on August 8 at $16.19. Before that 6th (Fr3) over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway, beaten 40 m by Captain Fear (1:54.00) in NW5000L5 on August 1 at $59.67. Unlikely to threaten.
