Plainridge Racecourse Race 3 - Race 3 - 1609m
TALL DARK LINDY (3) finished second last start, beaten 9 metres at this track over 1609m. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Ideally placed and is sure to be there at the finish. GRISELDA (5) finished seventh last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 20 metres, after scoring at the previous appearance over 1609m at this track. Meets a comparable field and she can play a big role. STAYOUTOFMYLANE (1) finished third at this track last time. Consistent performer whose best form stacks up favourably so she must be included. CHASE NEWS NETWORK (2) is the next elect off a last-start win by 1.5 metres at this track over 1609m.

Two back was well beaten into sixth behind Lindy Believer at this track over 1609m in a MASS STK on September 28 at $5.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing second behind Lindy Believer at this track over 1609m in a MASS STK on October 5 at $204.10. Genuine contender in this suitable contest.

Failed to impress last start; 7th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track beaten 20 m by Lindy Believer (1:53.10) in MASS STK on October 5 at $4.70. Showed ability the run before when she posted a big 14 m win (Fr4) at this track (1:52.10) beating Miss Chevious in MASS STK on September 28 at $3.60. Has the ability to play a major role.
