Plainridge Racecourse Race 2 - Race 2 - 1609m

BETTERTHANHOPE N (3) finished eighth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 15 metres, after a good third at this track the run prior. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a similar line up and she can make amends. CARSONSBUCKNGO (2) produced a good effort at his latest run to get home by a narrow margin over 1609m at Grand River Raceway on August 12. Has the benefit of a good draw. Primary contender in this comparable race. THIRD POWER (5) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at this track a week-and-a-half ago. SWEET NAN (4) must be respected after scoring last start by 1.5 metres at this track over 1609m.
