The Meadows Pa Race 6

1609m

Stake: $12,901

PEPE LOU PEW (1) was out of the money two runs back at Pocono Downs then improved sharply last start to score by 2.25 metres over 1609m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. That latest effort is good enough to win a race of this calibre. ADAM CHEESEHEAD (5) has had two runs this prep and is yet to finish in the top three. Was again unable to find the frame last time when he finished eighth over 1609m at this track, beaten 55 metres. Finds a suitable assignment and can improve sharply. CRUNCHY HILL (7) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Northfield Park. THE REAL THING (2) must be respected after scoring last start by 4 metres at this track over 1609m.
