The Meadows Pa Race 1

1609M

Prize Money: $90,195

GINGER TREE LEX (2) brought some very good form to the table before the latest appearance when she got the job done again, scoring by 12 metres over 1609m at Pocono Downs. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Her last-start form is good enough to put her right in the finish. ABBESS (5) ran fourth last start at Pocono Downs over 1609m, beaten 21 metres. Talented and has plenty of upside. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. MISTY BLUE (3) is on the radar after her last-start sixth over 1609m at Pocono Downs a week-and-a-half ago. LITT UP (1) is in the mix following a respectable third at her most recent appearance over 1609m at Pocono Downs.
