The Meadows Pa Race 5

1609m

Prize Money: $11,611

CHARLIEBOY (3) continued the strong recent form when he saluted last start over 1609m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meets a similar line up so he can keep the ball rolling. SHARKY BEAR (5) finished second last start over 1609m at Buffalo Raceway, beaten 16 metres, after scoring at the previous appearance over 1609m at Buffalo Raceway. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is up to the challenge. COALFORD BET ALINE (2) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 7 metres at this track over 1609m. MIKI'S BIG GUY (6) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fourth at this track over 1609m.

Last start was well beaten into second behind Pro Beach at Buffalo Raceway over 1609m in a NW1000L4 on May 8 at $1.54. Raced better the start before that where he won by a 0.6 m as favourite (Fr2) at Buffalo Raceway (1:58.00) beating Mingo Joel in NW1000L4 on May 1 at $1.52. Chief contender.
