Plainridge Racecourse Race 1 - Race 1 - 1609m

LOVEYOUCOOKIE (6) produced a better effort last time out when she scored by 9 metres over 1609m at Bangor Raceway. Finds a tougher race but she has the ability to make it two on the trot. STORYBOOK BELLA (7) was responsible for a very good effort last time over 1609m at this track, finishing second and just 1.5 metres from the winner. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Big chance based on that recent effort. BETTERTHANHOPE N (5) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 1.5 metres at this track over 1609m. TWIN B CARDI B (4) is worth some thought based on her second over 1609m at this track two runs ago. Something for the Multiples: LYONS SHINING (2)

Didn't do much last time out, 5th (Fr4) over 1609m at Bangor Raceway, beaten 15 m by Century Liberty (1:57.10) in FMNW1500L4 on September 16 at $4. Before that 6th (Fr4) over 1609m at Northfield Park beaten 9 m by Mollys Ace (1:54.00) in FMNW2500L4 on August 30 at $59.30. Prefer in something a bit easier.
