Plainridge Racecourse Race 4

1609M

Stake: $20,156

GB'S TORPEDO (1) recorded another strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at Monticello Raceway. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Finds a tougher race but a big run is on the cards. DOMI (4) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 3 metres from the winner in third over 1609m at this track. Big chance based on recent form. BANDOLITO BLAZE (2) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Bangor Raceway. STAR SPEAKER (8) must be respected after scoring last start by 1.5 metres at this track over 1609m.
