Plainridge Racecourse Race 10 - Race 10 - 1609m

CLAPTON (5) had to call on all reserves to score at the most recent appearance over 1609m at this track, getting home by just a neck. Meets a comparable field and he can salute once again. BAG PIPE MAJOR (3) ran fourth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 18 metres. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. D A WICKED SHINE (6) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1609m at this track a week ago. CLEARWATER COURAGE (4) showed pleasing improvement last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track.

Two back was well beaten into sixth behind Sixfingerfreddie at this track over 1609m on August 31 at $6.70. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Colt Bennett at this track over 1609m on September 7 at $24. Should be right in the finish.

Has been racing well this preparation and showed plenty of improvement following August 20 run. Last start posted a big 4 m win as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:54.20) beating Get Along in TRK<73 on August 31 at $2. This race will be harder than that win. Others make more appeal.

Last start 3rd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, beaten 11 m by Colt Bennett (1:52.40) on September 7 at $3.70. Two runs back 5th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 12 m by Sixfingerfreddie (1:52.00) on August 31 at $3.20. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten.
