Plainridge Racecourse Race 7 - Race 7 - 1609m
INSTANT REPLAY (6) scored by 9 metres at this track over 1609m last start, the second win from his past three appearances. Meets some better types this time but he has the ability to test this field. WATERFRONT (5) drew a wide gate last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 21 metres into eighth at this track over 1609m. Ideally placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. WICHITA LINEMAN (2) is worth another chance after a last-start eighth over 1609m at this track two weeks ago. KNEEDEEP N CUSTARD (3) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fifth at Philadelphia over 1609m.

Last start 5th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track beaten 35 m by Massive Speed (1:51.00) on August 17 at $93.70. Two runs back 7th (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 40 m by Mach Seelster (1:50.20) in NW5000CD on August 10 at $26.30. Can't make much of a case.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr7) over 1609m at Philadelphia beaten 16 m by Greater Than Aces (1:51.20) in 15000 CL on August 16 at $13. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 2.25 m (Fr4) at this track (1:51.40) beating Mach Seelster in TRK<80 on August 3 at $3.40. Capable of a strong showing.

Going well. Last start won by 9 m as favourite (Fr5) at this track (1:50.20) beating Torrid Saint in 12500CL on August 10 at $1.40. In the right form and can score again.

Last start 6th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track, beaten 7 m by Heinikin Bythebay (1:51.10) in NW7500CD on August 17 at $54.80. Two runs back 3rd (Fr6) over 1609m at this track beaten 4.5 m by Virtual Horizon (1:49.40) in NW7500CD on August 10 at $11.20. Unlikely to finish in the winner's circle.
