The Meadows Race 1

Sportsbet Final

Stake: $9,779

ROSS THE BOSS (4) was a strong course and distance winner last time, claiming a Mix 6/7 H in a solid 29.97 and a new PB here. Has the ability and looks hard to top. IMPACTFUL (1) held her own to the line last start and filled a minor placing, beaten only 2 lengths (30.57) behind ASCEND IGLOO at this track. Solid formlines coming through her last run. Hard to beat again. JONI BLACK (8) boasts strong form at this course and distance having won two times from four starts. Comes off a (30.37) win last time, scoring by 1.75 lengths in a Mix 6/7 H over 525m at this track. Can hit the frame with the right run. MARSHALL BEAR (2) cannot be overlooked following a recent narrow defeat after leading.
