Meadowlands Race 9

Race 9

Prize Money: $17,960

HERS HUNGRY (5) continued her impressive run of recent efforts last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 0.9 metres. This is a nice drop in grade so she is set to continue her impressive recent form. ELEGANT A (6) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 6 metres from the winner in third over 1609m at this track. Beautifully placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. CANT SEE ME (3) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when second at Philadelphia over 1609m. Must be included. GOING AWAY (8) showed pleasing improvement last time out when third over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway. Something for the Multiples: SMOOCH (4)

Solid run when beaten by 1.3 m finishing third behind Betternotmachme at Mohawk Park over 1609m on August 28 at $2.05. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing second behind Luckylady Hanover at Philadelphia over 1609m in a FMNW5PM on October 16 at $1.50. Looks the testing material.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following October 16 run. Just managed to hang on and win won by a 0.9 m as favourite (Fr2) at this track (1:53.30) beating Alwayswithyou in FMNW5000CD on October 23 at $2.60. This race will be harder than that win. Not keen.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind One More Bet at Plainridge Park over 1609m in a FM OPEN 2 on October 9 at $4.10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Lyons I Wanna Chip at this track over 1609m in a FMNW7500CD on October 24 at $5.30. Genuine contender in this suitable contest.

Two back was well beaten into sixth behind Spirit Of Pearl at Yonkers Raceway over 1609m in a FM50000CLM on October 13 at $59.69. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Dash N Cache at Yonkers Raceway over 1609m in a FM20000CLM on October 21 at $2.93. Definite winning chance.
