The Meadows Race 3

Happy 30th Peter

Prize Money: $8,785

RED HOT DIVA (4) is better than last start when fourth (29.72) in a Special conditions H at Sandown over 515m. Has winning claims on her best figures. PAW NIMBUS (1) was below best at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth at Sandown, but was among the placings at Sandown three back. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. WAX AND WASH (5) had won two starts on end before the winning streak was broken with a third placing (30.58) last time at Gawler. Expected to feature on best form. ZIPPING MEARES (6) has definite claims at her first try at this circuit.

Was out of placings last time (29.88) at Sandown in a Free For All, finishing fourth and beaten 6 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed four times. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Flew the lids with a quick early split but had to settle for the minor money when third (30.58) over 531m at Gawler. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Pay to follow.
