The Meadows Pa Race 11

1609M

Stake: $17,376

FEAR THE PANDA (5) has been racing very well and deserved his win last time out, scoring by 10 metres over 1609m at this track. That latest effort is good enough to win a race of this calibre. HE'S HOT AND READY (2) ran seventh last start at Miami Valley Raceway over 1609m, beaten 10 metres. Expected to run well. HAPPY HOUR BLUES (4) is the next elect off a last-start win by 12 metres at this track over 1609m. DRINKINMYBABYGDBY (3) is worth some thought after his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track on February 20.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 7th (Fr3) over 1609m at Miami Valley Raceway beaten 10 m by Woodrow Blue Chip (1:52.20) in NW4PM on February 17 at $33.70. At the previous start 7th (Fr1) over 1609m at Miami Valley Raceway beaten 14 m by Butchershop Buck (1:52.40) in NW4PM on February 3 at $15.40. Good enough to make amends in this line-up.

Last start 6th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track, beaten 45 m by American Fling (1:53.00) in NW2500L4 on February 20 at $102.50. Before that, a good run when 2nd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 1.5 m by Trumps News (1:54.20) in NW2300L4 on February 13 at $8.10. One of the better hopes.
