Plainridge Racecourse Race 3 - Race 3 - 1609m
TWO FIFTY (4) was in the money at The Red Mile two runs ago before finishing second at his latest appearance over 1609m at The Red Mile, beaten 4 metres. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. ON TAP LINDY (3) was in the money at this track two runs ago before finishing ninth at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 95 metres. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Meets some better types this time but a better run is on the cards. FLIP FLOP NICK (5) didn't do a bad job when fifth over 1609m at this track last time out. LUCKY ZETTE (1) is at the track for the first time. By Credit Winner and hails from the Dawn Anderson stable. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Any push in betting will add to the confidence.

Two-year-old colt by Credit Winner out of Zette Angel on debut. Finished sixth in a trial on September 15 at Philadelphia over 1609m. Worth keeping safe.
