The Meadows Race 12

Gorski Australian Made Tippers

Prize Money: $3,340

UNIVERSE (8) ran below best last time finishing fourth (31.05) over 525m at this track from Box 5. Worth another chance. REUBEN HILL (5) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (30.73) last time in a Free For All at this track. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. BOUNDING CHIEF (2) drew a squeeze box and was game in defeat when a close third, 1.5 lengths from the winner Barking Blue (19.92) at Healesville. Expected to be in this for a long way. ASTON TERESA (1) has strong credentials over this journey.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (19.92) over 350m at Healesville. Drawn close to the inside. Cannot be ruled out.
