The Meadows Pa Race 6

1609m

Prize Money: $15,086

CAPTAIN SAID (3) made a winning start to his career a week ago, getting home by 7 metres over 1609m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meets a similar line up so he is capable of getting the job done again. ALWAYS B HULA (8) added to his recent string of strong performances last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 19 metres. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position. Big chance in a similar assignment. EARN MY BET (1) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. IMA PROUD CAPTAIN (2) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 10 metres at this track over 1609m.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track beaten 24 m by Gilligan Hanover (1:53.30) in NW2EXTPM on October 22 at $3. Showed ability the run before when he posted a big 24 m win as favourite (Fr4) at Northfield Park (1:56.20) beating Every Mile Beach in NW1PMCD on October 13 at $2.40. In the mix from the inside draw.

Didn't do much last start, 8th (Fr9) over 1609m at this track, beaten 30 m by Fox Valley Endzone (1:53.10) in NW2EXTPM on October 15 at $27.80. Before that 4th (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, beaten 11 m by Slinky Dawg (1:54.30) in NW2EXTPM on October 8 at $27.20. Unlikely to finish in the winner's circle.

Two runs back won by 2.25 m as favourite (Fr2) at this track (1:55.10) beating Dial Tone in NW1EXTPM on October 8 at $1.60. Decent effort last start. In the mix again.

Last start was well beaten into second behind Gilligan Hanover at this track over 1609m in a NW2EXTPM on October 22 at $5.60. Performed better the start before with a solid effort when 3rd (Fr3) over 1609m at this track beaten 20 m by Odds On Favorite (1:51.10) in FAIR FINAL on October 9 at $18.30. Well placed to go one better.
