The Meadows Pa Race 3

1609m

Prize Money: $14,979

ILIKEITLIKETHAT (2) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 2.25 metres from the winner in second over 1609m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. ITS MY ERA (4) won at this track two runs ago before a less impressive effort at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 24 metres. Won't find this any harder and he can finish a lot closer this time. VENOM HANOVER (1) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 1609m at this track last time out. HUNGRY SPIRIT (5) must be considered after he finished third over 1609m at this track a week ago.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track, beaten 22 m by Stealing Apples (1:53.10) in NW2EXTPM on August 20 at $1.90. Showed ability the run before when he won by 13 m as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:52.10) beating Happy Tabby in CDCLMNW2 on August 13 at $1.80. Not out of the equation.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing fifth behind Three Way Action at this track over 1609m in a NW2EXTPM on August 13 at $3.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing second behind Stealing Apples at this track over 1609m in a NW2EXTPM on August 20 at $7.90. Looks the testing material.

Didn't do much at the last run, 8th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track beaten 25 m by Stealing Apples (1:53.10) in NW2EXTPM on August 20 at $14.60. Before that 7th (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, well beaten by Shaw Time (1:51.30) in NW2EXTPM on August 6 at $2. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten.

Showed ability the race before when he posted a big 6 m win as favourite (Fr6) at this track (1:53.10) beating Devil's Mark in NW1EXTPM on August 7 at $1.40. Sure to play a significant role.

Last start good run when 3rd (Fr3) over 1609m at this track, beaten 16 m by Stealing Apples (1:53.10) in NW2EXTPM on August 20 at $6.20. Two runs back won by 1.5 m (Fr3) at this track (1:53.10) beating Devil's Mark in NW1EXTPM on August 14 at $4.80. Should be right in the finish.

Didn't do much last start, 7th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track beaten 15 m by Fox Valley Chuckle (1:52.20) in CDCLMW1NW4 on August 22 at $67.10. Before that 7th (Fr7) over 1609m at Northfield Park, beaten 35 m by Fernetti (1:54.20) in NW2500L4 on July 1 at $110. Recent form suggests he needs to lift.
