The Meadows Race 8

Maturity Classic Ht4

Prize Money: $9,055

DASHING SLAY (7) scored (25.08) last time out at Shepparton adding to an already respectable career. Ran the fastest time on the program in her latest win. Looks the one to beat. PAW QUINBY (1) was below best last time at Sandown (34.83) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 7 length sixth. Has two wins already from this draw. Looks one of the chances. URANA COBALT (8) filled a minor placing last start at Sandown behind Panama Rhode (34.43) in a Grade 5. Took the lead and boxed on but run over. Expected to be in the finish again. KURNAI BOLT (5) has strong credentials over this journey.

Good effort to win last start by 3.5 lengths over 425m at Bendigo in a handy (23.89), beating Doongalla Jessie. Will find this a bit tougher, likely to struggle this time.

Hit the ground running with a fast early sectional but found one better when runner up over 595m at Sandown clocking 34.43. Boxed on well to finish runner-up last time. Leading player.
