Plainridge Racecourse Race 11 - Race 11 - 1609m
PATRIKTHEPIRANHA A (3) was successful last time out by 5 metres in a nice return to form at this track over 1609m. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Meets some better types this time but he has the ability to make it two on the trot. HEAD HONCHO (1) is in good form at present. Finished second at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 4.5 metres. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Meets a comparable field and he can grab that well-deserved win. QUENTIN QUARANTINO (5) is better than his last-start seventh over 1609m at this track. SWIFTY RUN (2) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 5 metres at this track over 1609m.

Improved last start with a good run when 2nd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, beaten 4.5 m by Sweet Street Lou (1:51.40) in STR ALL on September 21 at $4.80. Sure to play a major role.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following August 31 run. Last start won by 1.5 m (Fr4) at this track (1:52.00) beating General Montana in NW3000CD on September 14 at $4.80. This race will be harder than that win. Fully tested.

Last start 7th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track beaten 18 m by Sweet Street Lou (1:51.40) in STR ALL on September 21 at $5.30. Before that, a good run when 3rd (Fr2) over 1609m at this track beaten 9 m by Anvil Hands (1:51.00) in STR ALL on September 14 at $21.90. Will give a good account.

Mixing form recently. Last start was 3rd (Fr5) over 1609m at this track beaten 10 m by Sweet Street Lou (1:51.40) in STR ALL on September 21 at $6.20. Before that beaten 30 metres, seventh at this track over 1609m STR ALL on September 14. Win doesn't look likely.
