Plainridge Racecourse Race 8 - Race 8 - 1609m

MCSTONED AGAIN (4) made it three minor placings from his past four starts when he finished 9 metres away in second last time out over 1609m at this track. Meets a comparable field so he is capable of getting the job done. LIGHTNINGFAST (5) drew wide last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 14 metres into sixth at this track over 1609m. This is a nice drop in grade so from a favourable draw he is in the right race to score. POPPY WOW (1) can break her way into the winner's list after registering a sequence of three top-three finishes, the latest at this track a week ago. FOURTH WARNING (2) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fifth at this track over 1609m.

Two back was well beaten into sixth behind Just Roxy at this track over 1609m in a NW6000CD on September 17 at $42.90. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing second behind You Dont Own Me at this track over 1609m in a NW3000CD on September 24 at $4.90. Has the right credentials to take this out.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start posted a big 4 m win (Fr5) at this track (1:55.20) beating Poppy Wow in TRK<76 on September 24 at $6.80. Despite winning form this is likely to prove too tough.
