The Meadows Race 4

Brother Stevo Murphy

Prize Money: $8,785

CASH NOW (1) jumped quickly and led throughout to score two back then well held latest finishing a 7 length 7th at Sandown (30.32). Tough to beat if on-song. ASTON GOLEA (5) was game in defeat off the inside draw last start, finishing second and beaten 0.8 lengths (30.41) behind Paw Yale at this track. Winning chance. BIG BOY COOPER (2) was responsible for a modest effort most recently when fifth at this track over 525m behind Paw Yochelle (30.54) in a Grade 5. Was a winner the start prior. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. MAGIC SCOTCH (7) is among the chances again if she runs up to the latest effort.
