Plainridge Racecourse Race 7 - Race 7 - 1609m
HUNTING ZONE (4) scored by 3 metres at this track over 1609m last start, the second win from his past three outings. His last-start form is good enough to win a race of this calibre. DALE YEAH (6) was yet again about the mark last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 4 metres. Big chance in this comparable race. MASSIVE SPEED (7) has been hard to fault of late, adding to the winning tally last start with success over 1609m at Bangor Raceway. No reason the run cannot continue. KWICK SAND A (5) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway. Can bounce back.

Last start 4th (Fr3) over 1609m at Pocono Downs beaten 15 m by Ruthless Hanover (1:48.30) in WO25000LT on October 10 at $38.90. Two runs back won by 3 m (Fr5) at this track (1:49.20) beating So Rock N' Roll in OPEN on September 24 at $6.30. Unlikely to finish in the winner's circle.

Racing consistently with minor placings at his last two starts. Placed last start 3rd (Fr4) over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway beaten 4.5 m by Neverstopdreamin (1:52.00) in NW20000L5 on October 19 at $9.95. Before that 3rd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 5 m by Soho Spectre (1:49.20) in OPEN on September 24 at $9. Not among the main chances.
