Plainridge Racecourse Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609m

COLT BENNETT (2) scored two runs back then recorded a comfortable victory last time out, scoring by 6 metres over 1609m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Taking on a better line-up this time but he good enough to play a major role. MAJOR BETTS (5) finished sixth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 18 metres, after a good second at this track the run prior. Tackles a similar assignment and he can finish a lot closer this time. LONGVIEW LAD N (4) is better than his last-start seventh over 1609m at this track. CAPTAIN TELL (3) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when third at this track over 1609m.

Six-year-old entire is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start won by 6 m (Fr7) at this track (1:52.40) beating Clearwater Courage in TRK<79 on September 7 at $4.50. Going very well and deserves top billing.
