The Meadows Pa Race 8

1609M

Prize Money: $16,820

QUICK PITTSTOP (2) was in the money at this track two runs ago before having his colours lowered at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 23 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. This doesn't look as hard so he is in the right race to return to form. DEREK'S ROCKET (1) recorded yet another strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track, adding to a string of recent minor placings. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field and he can grab that well-deserved win. FINAL CHANCE (5) is right in contention after finishing in the placings for the second time in a row last start, beaten 18 metres into third at this track. No reason he cannot take this out. GONNABELEGENDARY (4) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fourth at this track over 1609m.
