The Meadows Pa Race 12

1609m

Prize Money: $16,255

DON'T B BLUE (5) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 4.5 metres from the winner in fourth over 1609m at this track. Big chance based on those recent efforts. CHARLIEBOY (2) finished fourth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 7 metres, after a good win at this track the run prior. Has the benefit of a good draw. Tackles a similar assignment and he can get back to the winner's list. MOSCOW MITCH (4) is better than his last-start seventh over 1609m at this track. BEN RACIN (1) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.
