Plainridge Racecourse Race 3 - Race 3 - 1609m
ALWAYS B GINGER (3) is a two-year-old filly by Always B Miki from Ginger Island on debut. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Will be right there at the business end. SEAFOOD CC (4) finished fifth at this track two runs ago before finishing fourth at her latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 5 metres. Must raise the bar but a better run is on the cards. MICRO MANAGE (5) is worth another chance after a last-start ninth over 1609m at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago. ALLPUMPEDUP (2) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at Saratoga. Can turn things around.
