The Meadows Pa Race 1

1609m

Prize Money: $16,690

NICKELBACK (3) has been in the placings two times from as many runs this prep. Went well again last time over 1609m at Scioto Downs, finishing second and 0.6 metres from the winner. Has the benefit of a good draw. Won't find this any harder and he can grab that well-deserved win. GENERATIONALWEALTH (2) ran fifth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 16 metres. Has ability and should be right in the finish. DRY RIDGE ERIE (1) has been hard to fault of late, adding to the winning tally last start with success over 1609m at this track. No reason the run cannot continue. HOME RUN KING (5) must be included after winning his past four starts, the latest at this track two weeks ago.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 16 m by Ghetto Loupastar (1:51.40) in TSS-3YOCG on August 28 at $16.10. Showed ability the race before when he won by a 0.6 m as favourite (Fr5) at this track (1:52.20) beating Cruisinoverfire in NW3EXTPM on August 14 at $1.20. Capable of a strong showing.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Spoon Fed at this track over 1609m in a W2NW4EXTPM on August 15 at $21.30. Then a handy effort when a close second behind The Family Man at Scioto Downs over 1609m in a HGNW6CDCL on August 29 at $3.30. Chief contender.

Comes here in the right form. Won by a nose at Georgian Downs (1:54.10) beating Outrun The Odds in G on August 25 at $2.40 at the bell was 3rd-. Two runs back 4th over 1609m at Grand River Raceway was 5th- at the bell, beaten 2.5 m by Bettor Talker (1:52.10) in G on August 19 at $38.35. Better off avoiding.
