The Meadows Pa Race 14

1609M

Prize Money: $13,124

CRUZIN AMERICA (1) scored at this track three runs ago. Returned to something like that form last time out when third over 1609m at this track, beaten 13 metres. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. CAPTAIN COWBOY (4) ran fifth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 35 metres. Expecting a very good run. ROCKED N LOADED (6) is close to a win after two successive placings, the latest a second over 1609m at this track. Great chance to break through. AMERICAN FLING (5) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 14 metres at this track over 1609m.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing sixth behind Moment Is Here at this track over 1609m in a NW12500L4 on February 13 at $7.60. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Liteningonthebeach at this track over 1609m in a NW9500L4 on February 20 at $5.80. In the mix from the inside draw.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track beaten 35 m by Liteningonthebeach (1:51.30) in NW9500L4 on February 20 at $38.10. Showed ability the outing before when he posted a big 5 m win (Fr4) at this track (1:54.20) beating Johnny Sack in NW4250L4 on February 6 at $2.70. Has the right credentials to take this out.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Buckeyebollinger at this track over 1609m in a NW6800L4 on February 13 at $35.20. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Spiritofanoutlaw at this track over 1609m in a NW4200L4 on February 20 at $5.30. Looks the testing material.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by a neck (Fr5) at this track (1:53.00) beating Rocked N Loaded in NW4200L4 on February 20 at $3.10. Two runs back 2nd (Fr3) over 1609m at this track beaten 0.6 m by Trumpster Blues (1:53.20) in NW5000L4 on February 13 at $1.40. Looks one of the also-rans.
