The Meadows Pa Race 1

1609M

Stake: $30,419

STRONG POISON (5) continued a solid run of recent form when she scored at her latest appearance over 1609m at The Red Mile, getting home by 6 metres. Meeting a deeper field this time but she has the ability to mix it with them. HIGH FLYIN' FILLY (6) drew wide last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 90 metres into sixth at Oak Grove Racing over 1609m. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. MARLOE HANOVER (4) is better than her last-start seventh over 1609m at Scioto Downs. ALWAYS GONNA B YOU (1) is the best of the rest after finishing runner-up over 1609m at this track last time out.
