Plainridge Racecourse Race 5

1609M

Stake: $21,835

LEVEL UP (2) resumes after finishing sixth at his latest appearance at this track on July 21. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Has the talent to take care of this field. BAG PIPE MAJOR (4) finished fifth last start, beaten 11 metres at this track over 1609m. Expect him to pose a serious challenge. BEACH WATCH (6) disappointed last time when eighth over 1609m at this track. Can turn things around. QUICK SHOT (5) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.
