Meadowlands Race 4

Race 4

Prize Money: $208,333

BOOKIE J (1) finished fourth last start, beaten 12 metres at The Red Mile over 1609m. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Facing a tougher assignment but he is capable of running a big race. DANCIN DADDY (4) won at Scioto Downs two runs ago before a less impressive effort at his latest appearance over 1609m at Pocono Downs, beaten 40 metres. Meets some better types this time but a better run is on the cards. THISBEESTINGS DEO (5) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1609m at The Red Mile a week-and-a-half ago. CALLMEBIGPAPI (3) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound second at Philadelphia over 1609m.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Toast Of The Town at Pocono Downs over 1609m in a HEMPTCONII on August 22 at $47.20. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second behind Toast Of The Town at Philadelphia over 1609m in a PASS CONS on September 6 at $25.90. Nice effort last time. Leading contender.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr2) over 1609m at Pocono Downs beaten 40 m by Toast Of The Town (1:48.40) in HEMPTCONII on August 22 at $12.70. Showed ability the run before when he posted a big 5 m win as favourite (Fr1) at Scioto Downs (1:50.30) beating Sunnys In The Sea in HGNW2PMRLT on August 15 at $1.80. Has the ability to take this out.
