Plainridge Racecourse Race 10 - Race 10 - 1609m
HEAVENS PIC (7) finished fifth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 4 metres, after a good win at this track the run prior. Has to contend with a very wide draw. Finds a suitable assignment and can play a major role. MALIBU KID (6) finished sixth last start, beaten 8 metres at this track over 1609m. Expecting a very good run. FEELING OPTIMISTIC (1) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 0.9 metres at this track over 1609m. SISTER SWELL (3) must be considered after she finished runner-up over 1609m at this track a week ago.

Last start won by a 0.9 m (Fr6) at this track (1:55.00) beating Consus Victory in NW6000CD on August 27 at $5.50. Going well enough to take care of these.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Kazio at this track over 1609m in a NW7500CD on August 13 at $27.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Manhattan Moni at this track over 1609m in a NW9000CD on August 27 at $5.10. Looks the testing material.

Fair performance when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Doc Nixon at Tioga Downs over 1609m in a NW6001-4 on August 15 at $17.96. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third behind Manhattan Moni at this track over 1609m in a NW9000CD on August 27 at $11.20. Well placed, should prove hard to beat.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 6th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 8 m by Memorynimagination (1:53.30) in NW12000CD on August 27 at $25.50. The run before 6th (Fr1) over 1609m at Saratoga beaten 15 m by Platinum As (1:55.30) in WO/OPENHCP on August 17 at $36.41. Worth another chance. Leading player.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr1) over 1609m at this track, beaten 4 m by Memorynimagination (1:53.30) in NW12000CD on August 27 at $12.30. Showed ability the run before when he won by 2.25 m as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:53.40) beating Adios My Lindy in NW7500CD on August 20 at $1.60. Has the ability to take this out.

Comes here in the right form. Won by 3 m (Fr5) at this track (1:56.10) beating Sister Swell in NW9000CD on August 27 at $8.80. Two runs back 3rd (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 2.25 m by Heavens Pic (1:53.40) in NW7500CD on August 20 at $46.90. Unlikely to finish in the winner's circle.
