The Meadows Race 2

Supporting Look Good, Feel Better

Prize Money: $8,785

TARBHACH (1) is better than last start when seventh (23.44) in a Restricted WIN at Warragul over 400m. Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. SHE'S STRIKING (2) had the drop on the lead before drawing clear to score (30.39) at this track in Mix 6/7 over 525m. Has hit winning form and can measure up again. GNARLACK (7) finds it hard to win. Finished in the money last time though when second (29.90) at Sandown. Expected to feature again. ASTON MACHINE (6) was in the money last start and poses a threat again.

Well fancied last start but could only manage seventh over 400m at Warragul in 23.44. Had been going well prior to that. Drawn the inside here. Has ability and can bounce back.

Has hit the frame the last two starts, the latest when third (30.12) over 515m at Sandown. Awkward draw to overcome. Will need plenty of luck.

Could only manage eighth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when second (30.78) over 525m at this track. Boxed awkwardly and looks safely held.
