The Meadows Pa Race 6

1609M

Prize Money: $16,152

WATER TORPEDO (7) is in a purple patch of form with wins at his last four starts, most recently when he was too good over this track and distance a week-and-a-half ago. Must overcome a very wide draw. Recent efforts are good enough to take out a race like this. GABBY'S WILD CHILD (1) is racing well with five top-five finishes in succession, the latest effort a third at this track over 1609m. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meets a comparable field so he can add to the impressive recent efforts. GRIZZ WYLLIE (5) is the next elect off a last-start win by a neck at Pocono Downs over 1609m. MASS MARKET (3) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound fourth at this track over 1609m.

Fair performance when beaten by 4 m finishing second behind Water Torpedo at this track over 1609m in a 16000CLHC on February 19 at $5. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Water Torpedo at this track over 1609m in a 16000CLHC on February 27 at $4.60. Has the ability to play a major role.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following February 19 run. Just managed to hang on and win won by a 0.6 m (Fr4) at this track (1:57.10) beating Aunt Bee in NW1750L4 on March 4 at $9.90. This race will be harder than that win. Impossible to entertain.

Well beaten last start by Water Torpedo, a rival who he faces again; when 75 metres sixth at this track over 1609m in a 16000CLHC race on February 27. Can't see him featuring.

Comes here in the right form. Won by a 0.9 m as favourite (Fr6) at this track (1:55.20) beating Rose Run Yankee in 16000CLHC on February 27 at $1.40. Two runs back posted a big 4 m win as favourite (Fr8) at this track (1:55.30) beating Gabby's Wild Child in 16000CLHC on February 19 at $1.80. No reason he cannot score again.
