The Meadows Pa Race 13

1609M

Prize Money: $12,232

MIDNIGHT ROCKER (2) drew a wide gate last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 30 metres into sixth at Scioto Downs over 1609m. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Has the talent to find the winners' list. ER ROCKY (4) scored by 2.25 metres at The Red Mile over 1609m last start at his first run back from a spell. Stepping up a level this time but he is fitter for that last hit-out and good enough to take this out. LETTUCE NIPYA (7) is close to a win after two successive seconds, the latest over 1609m at Northfield Park. Capable of taking this out. PATRIKTHEPIRANHA (3) could only finish seventh over 1609m at this track most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix.
