The Meadows Race 6

Gorski Truck & Trailer

Stake: $11,205

WREN BALE (5) started big odds in tougher last time when finishing 4th over 600m at this track. Scored at this track in weaker company the previous run. Has claims if she runs up to expectations. DEWANA FERNANDO (7) was a dominant winner after leading to make it two on end, scoring by 4.5 lengths (33.99) at Sandown over 595m. The form out of his last race has been franked. Leading chance again. OAKLYN BALE (1) broke from a low draw and filled a minor placing last start, beaten only a long neck (34.36) behind Tammy McIvor at Sandown. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Expecting another good run. FACETIOUS (2) looks an each-way chance.

Hit the frame latest (34.36) when second at Sandown in a Grade 4/5. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and four minors. Looks well placed and should feature.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 600m. Last start finished 4th in a Free For All on April 26 over 600m at this track behind Upset Sunset beaten 3.5 lengths (34.59). Has been around the mark at her last couple and should make her presence felt.

Good effort to win last start by 1.1 lengths over 600m at this track in a handy (34.64), beating Scotch Time. Makes plenty of appeal on that latest effort.
