Plainridge Racecourse Race 10 - Race 10 - 1609m
SWEET STREET LOU (3) is racing well with nine top-five finishes in succession, the latest effort a second at this track over 1609m. Has the benefit of a good draw. Big chance in a similar assignment. TH KAY C CRUNCH (5) has been racing well of late. Finished fourth at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 4 metres. Meets a comparable field and he can take this out. SLING SHOCK (2) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 1609m at this track last time out. HOLLYWOOD SKEETER (4) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing third behind Galactic Storm at this track over 1609m in a STR ALL on October 16 at $4.90. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Sweet Jeff at this track over 1609m in a STR ALL on October 22 at $2.40. Has the right credentials to take this out.

Racing consistently with minor placings at his last two starts at this course. Placed last start 3rd (Fr1) over 1609m at this track beaten 3 m by Swifty Run (1:53.30) in STR ALL on October 6 at $4.10. Before that 3rd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 10 m by Hollywood Skeeter (1:50.30) in STR ALL on September 29 at $20. Can't make much of a case.
