The Meadows Pa Race 3

1609M

Stake: $20,156

COUNTRY DAGGER (4) took full advantage of the inside draw when a dominant winner at this course and distance last time out. Taking on a better field but he is up to the task. ARROWHEAD HANOVER (5) finished third last start over 1609m at Pocono Downs, beaten 14 metres, after scoring at the previous appearance over 1609m at this track. Perfectly placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. HIGH LIFE (6) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. L DEES MARIA (3) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fifth at this track over 1609m.
