The Meadows Race 9 - Maturity Classic Ht5
SAQUON (4) has a strong record this trip including three wins from four starts. Missed the frame latest (30.60) when fifth over 525m at this track in a Grade 5. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. DESTROYING (2) turned in a solid run last start over 520m at Wentworth Park finishing 5th and beaten only 5 lengths (30.00). Solid formlines coming through his last run. Likely to be about the money. ASCEND ECSTATIC (1) is a fast beginner who has shown good improvement at her last two starts, the latest scoring at this track over 525m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in her latest win. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of that last-start win. PAW ZURI (3) is last start winner who looks one of the chances.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 525m in 29.95 last start, beating Vista Weird. Likes the rails so expected to measure up again.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Wentworth Park over 520m. Last start finished 5th on July 5 over 520m at Wentworth Park behind Gus The Jet beaten 5 lengths (30.00) in a NG. Comes through a good form race. Looks a top chance.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by half a length over 515m at Sandown in a handy 29.34, beating Schillaci. In winning form now and looks a major threat.

Form has been good with a placing two starts ago and a win three runs back. Last time out finished 3rd on July 12 over 525m at this track behind Galento beaten 0.8 lengths (30.30) in a Grade 5. Has been racing well enough. Among the chances.
