Plainridge Racecourse Race 2 - Race 2 - 1609m
ODDS ON LAUDERDALE (4) drew a wide gate last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 10 metres into sixth at this track over 1609m. Must raise the bar but from a far better starting position a big run is on the cards. INSTANT REPLAY (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. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Good enough to take out a race like this. TORRID SAINT A (5) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 3 metres at this track over 1609m. ENFORCER (2) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 1.5 metres at this track over 1609m.

Two back was well beaten into sixth behind Odds On Lauderdale at this track over 1609m in a 12500CL on September 14 at $13.30. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind General Montana at this track over 1609m in a 10000CL on September 22 at $6.70. In the mix from the inside draw.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Cool Man Dude at Bangor Raceway over 1609m in a NW3500L4CD on September 12 at $4.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind General Montana at this track over 1609m in a 10000CL on September 22 at $1.60. Capable of taking this out.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr9) over 1609m at this track, beaten 10 m by Torrid Saint (1:52.30) in 12500CL on September 22 at $5. Showed ability the outing before when he posted a big 10 m win as favourite (Fr3) at this track (1:51.40) beating Wichita Lineman in 12500CL on September 14 at $2.30. Has the ability to play a major role.

Going well. Last start won by 3 m (Fr2) at this track (1:52.30) beating Whata Foolbelieves in 12500CL on September 22 at $5.80. No reason he cannot get the job done again.
