Plainridge Racecourse Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609m
INSTANT REPLAY (2) finished fourth last start over 1609m at Bangor Raceway, beaten 15 metres. Best recent result was a win at this track three starts ago over 1609m. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Taking on a better field but he is up to the task. GENERAL MONTANA N (3) was responsible for a very good effort last time over 1609m at this track, finishing second and just 1.5 metres from the winner. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Meets a similar line up and he can take this out. DENIAL (6) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 1609m at this track last time out. SOMEHACKSOMEWHERE (1) is better than his last-start eighth over 1609m at this track.
