Plainridge Racecourse Race 11 - Race 11 - 1609m
P L PASQUALE (5) was responsible for a very good effort last time over 1609m at this track, finishing second and just 0.9 metres from the winner. Meets a comparable field and he can figure in the finish. SMART GUY (6) drew wide once again last start but was most impressive, scoring by 9 metres at this track over 1609m. Steps up a level but he is good enough to make his presence felt. PATRIKTHEPIRANHA A (4) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when he finished fifth at this track over 1609m. LOW RIDER (3) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Improved last start with a good run when 2nd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, beaten 0.9 m by Jl's Rock Star (1:52.30) on October 16 at $5.30. Has the right credentials to take this out.

Last start 3rd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, beaten 13 m by Just Givener (1:49.00) in W3-6PMLT on October 16 at $27.80. Two runs back won by 2.25 m as favourite (Fr5) at this track (1:52.30) beating Houdini Hanover in NW2PMLT on October 6 at $1.80. Will struggle to compete against the top handful.
