The Meadows Race 3

Novotel Preston

Prize Money: $8,785

STARBORN (5) turned in a fair 4th placed finish last time at this track over 525m (30.45). Won at his only start from this box. Ready to return to form. IN MODERATION (2) has been hard to follow lately, running sixth (28.70) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Expecting significant improvement this line-up. CHEEKY STREAK (3) finds it hard to win. Better run when finding the frame last time though, finishing second (30.48) at this track. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Will give a great sight again. ONE MORE DRAM (4) is worth consideration after filling a hole at this course and distance last start.

Lines up from box 2 for the first time after finishing a 7 length sixth at Bendigo (28.70) in a Restricted WIN H. Key chance and should go close.

Working his way into winning form after claiming his maiden success on April 20 at Ballarat over 450m. Last start was second over 525m in 30.46, behind Ocean Elliot. Looks a solid hope.
