Plainridge Racecourse Race 7 - Race 7 - 1609m

HARD TO FORGET (2) continued a solid run of recent form when he scored at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, getting home by 13 metres. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he has the ability to mix it with them. BEANTOWN DRAGON (4) turned in a strong effort last time over 1609m at this track, finishing 19 metres from the winner in third. Comes back to Plainridge Park and puts a strong record here on the line. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is good enough to take this out. MR MCTYGUE (5) is the next best after finishing runner-up over 1609m at this track last time out. ALTAIR BLUE CHIP (7) is the best of the rest after finishing fifth over 1609m at this track last time out.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Hard To Forget at this track over 1609m in a MASS STK on October 6 at $3. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Hard To Forget at this track over 1609m in a MASS STK on October 20 at $18.40. One of the key runners.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 24 m by Hard To Forget (1:52.00) in MASS STK on October 20 at $38.30. Showed ability the race before when he won by 1.5 m as favourite (Fr5) at this track (1:52.30) beating Alcatraz Blue Chip in MASS STK on October 6 at $1.40. Sure to be very competitive.
