The Meadows Race 4

Rsn Grey Areas - Wednesday & Friday

Prize Money: $9,055

COLAC KID (4) impressed when clocking a swift 29.88 over 520m at Geelong three back then has hit the frame in both runs since. Can measure up on top win three back. REALITY BEST (7) finished second (29.65) two back at Wentworth Park but out of the placings last time when 6th there. Solid record here at the distance winning two races. Some good form is emerging from her last run. One of the better chances. SHIMA STAN (5) boasts a strong record this journey with five wins and two minors from 13 tries. Was out of placings last time (30.23) at Sandown in a Special conditions G3, finishing fourth and beaten 16 lengths. Looks a key chance on best figures. MEPUNGA SMOKEY (8) finished in the placings last start and deserves some thought.

Comments

Comes off a (29.97) win last time, scoring by 1.1 lengths in a Mix 3/4 over 525m at this track. Goes very well from the draw boasting three victories and three places from nine starts. Tough field and looking to others this time.

Went down narrowly in a Grade 4/5 at Geelong latest when a neck second but did record a quick 25.85 over the 460m journey. Harder here and one for the multiples.

Comments

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 4 length third (30.80) over 530m at Angle Park and making it two placings on end. More than capable and well placed to find his best form.

Missed the frame last start when fourth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Capable and may well bounce back this time.

Could manage only sixth last time but caught the eye the start prior when she clocked an outstanding 29.65 over 520m finishing second at Wentworth Park. Expected to push the clock again here.
