The Meadows Pa Race 1

1609M

Prize Money: $25,140

TIME OF THE SEASON (6) is in good form with top-five finishes at her last 23 starts, most recently recording a second over 1609m at Miami Valley Raceway. This is a nice drop in grade so she is a major player again. DARLENE'S ANGEL (5) form this prep has been most impressive and she made it two from two when successful at her latest appearance over 1609m at this track, getting home by 3 metres. Steps up a level but she is good enough to take this out. MIKILOB ULTRA (4) is in the mix following a sixth at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. ANNA LOVE N (3) is in the mix following a respectable second at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Four-year-old filly is racing in fine form. Won her last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start won by 3 m as favourite (Fr4) at this track (1:52.20) beating Anna Love in FNW10500L4 on April 29 at $1.50. Going very well and deserves top billing.

Solid performance when a close second behind Rose at this track over 1609m in a FMOPEN HCP on April 9 at $2.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Goo Goo Won at Miami Valley Raceway over 1609m in a FM OPEN II on April 16 at $2.60. Looks the testing material.
