Plainridge Racecourse Race 8 - Race 8 - 1609m
JEFFREY NEIL (1) continued the strong recent form when he saluted last start over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field and he can go right on with the job. PONDA ROCKY (6) won at this track two runs ago but couldn't repeat the dose at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 metres. Finds a nice race and can bounce straight back to the winner's circle. HEAVENS PIC (7) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. DOUBLE ACCOUNT (4) showed pleasing improvement last time out when third over 1609m at this track.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by a 0.8 m (Fr2) at this track (1:54.00) beating Chapter Of Life in W2-5PMLTCD on October 1 at $2.20. Two runs back posted a big 12 m win as favourite (Fr5) at this track (1:55.00) beating Energetic Julio in W2-5PMLTCD on September 17 at $1.50. Big chance to add to the picket fence.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing fourth behind Just Roxy at this track over 1609m in a NW6000CD on October 15 at $6. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing third behind Wendell Blue Chip at this track over 1609m in a NW4000CD on October 23 at $2.40. Big run expected.

Last start unplaced (Fr2) over 1609m at this track well beaten by Wall Street Edge (1:54.40) in NW10000CD on October 8. Before that, 4th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track beaten 12 m by Feeling Optimistic (1:54.30) in NW10000CD on October 1 at $4.20. One of the better hopes.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 9 m by Caviart War Room (1:54.30) in NW10000CD on October 30 at $6.70. Showed ability the run before when he won by a neck (Fr2) at this track (1:55.00) beating Seven Sins in NW6000CD on October 23 at $5.60. One of the key runners.
