Plainridge Racecourse Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609m

ACUSHLA MACHREE N (5) scored last time out by 8 metres at this track over 1609m after an encouraging minor placing the start before. Leading hope in this comparable race. ROYALLY HOT (2) was responsible for a far better performance at her latest appearance, finishing third over 1609m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Won't find this any harder and she can go right on with the job. SWEDISH STARLET N (3) was responsible for a better effort last time out when third over 1609m at this track. Should run a big race. TAKE YOUR PICK (4) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when second at this track over 1609m.

Seven-year-old mare showed improvement last time. Won by a 0.9 m as favourite (Fr5) at this track (1:51.30) beating Blood Moon in MNW10000CD on October 2 at $1.90. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into fourth behind Swedish Starlet at this track over 1609m in a FM OPEN HC on September 17 at $24.40. This is likely to prove too tough.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Swedish Starlet at this track over 1609m in a FM OPEN HC on September 17 at $3. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing third behind Take Your Pick at this track over 1609m in a FM OPEN HC on September 24 at $2.30. Well placed to go a couple better.
