The Meadows Race 7

Sportsbet Feed Final

Prize Money: $9,055

CAPRICORN ONE (2) has some solid form under his belt and proved too strong last time to win by 3 lengths at this track in a handy 29.84 beating PAW LEON. Boasts a strong record from this draw with two wins and two minor placings from four starts. In great form and can continue his winning ways. PAW GERTRUDE (3) ran a respectable 25.79 when filling a minor placing over 460m at Warragul last start. This is tougher but looks a leading chance again. PAW TABITHA (8) can feature with the right run.

Hit the frame at Warragul last time when a 0.7 lengths second but did record a convincing 25.79 over the 460m journey. Hard to top with a repeat of that run.

Ran a better race when third behind Capricorn One at this track last start over 525m (30.36). Gets back so might need a bit of luck.
