Plainridge Racecourse Race 3 - Race 3 - 1609m

PATRIKTHEPIRANHA A (5) could only manage to finish fifth at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, failing to live up to market expectations. Won't find this any harder and he can turn in a much better performance. RIFLEMAN (2) ran sixth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 19 metres. Expect him to be prominent. WATERFRONT (4) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1609m at this track eight days ago. P A PIPER (3) is the best of the rest after finishing fourth over 1609m at this track last time out.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 6th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 19 m by Anvil Hands (1:51.00) in STR ALL on September 14 at $4.30. The run before 5th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track beaten 9 m by Tualou (1:50.40) in NW9000CD on September 8 at $87.90. Happy to give him another try in this suitable contest.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 7th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track beaten 16 m by Bang Ah Uey (1:52.00) in NW3000CD on September 14 at $17.80. At the previous start 9th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track beaten 70 m by Sundown Kid (1:52.00) in NW6000CD on September 8 at $45.40. Good enough to make amends in this line-up.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Low Rider at this track over 1609m in a NW3000CD on September 7 at $58.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Bang Ah Uey at this track over 1609m in a NW3000CD on September 14 at $5.40. Big run expected.
