The Meadows Race 7

Sportsbet Ht1 (1-6 Wins)

Prize Money: $3,940

DESIRABILITY (1) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (34.66) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at Sandown. Key player on best and expected to bounce back. DESTINY LANE (4) broke a three run winning streak last start when fifth and beaten 15 lengths (35.17) last time at Sandown. Has a good record here including three wins. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. WYONG HOUSTON (2) has a strong record here with four wins and three placings from 12 starts. Missed the frame latest (30.42) when fifth over 525m at this track in a Grade 5. Among the main chances. MISTER MANFREDI (3) cannot be left out after placing at a big quote last start.

Has finished last in his last couple of starts, most recently at Ballarat over 545m. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

Good effort to win last start by 3.5 lengths over 500m at Bendigo in a handy (28.54), beating Fire Wire. Will find this a bit tougher, looks tested in this company.

Expected Early Speed:Midfield
