The Meadows Pa Race 8 - Race 8 - 1609M
ADAMSVILLE ROAD (3) had to call on all reserves to score last time out over 1609m at Miami Valley Raceway, getting home by just 1.5 metres. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role again. EASTER JACK (2) was responsible for a very good effort last time over 1609m at this track, finishing second and just 0.9 metres from the winner. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Primary contender in a similar line-up. BIG BOY ERNEST (5) is the next elect off a last-start win by 0.9 metres at this track over 1609m. SFORZA (4) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway two months ago.

Last start game effort when 2nd (Fr5) over 1609m at this track beaten 0.9 m by Big Boy Ernest (1:56.30) in OPEN HCP on January 14 at $2.90. Two runs back won by a 0.9 m (Fr3) at Miami Valley Raceway (1:55.20) beating Pizzelle in NW16501L4 on January 7 at $7.60. Rates highly. Big chance.

Freshened-up since the last run 62 days ago. Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished a narrow second behind B Nicking at Yonkers Raceway over 1609m NW15301L5 last start. Before that was beaten 4 metres third at Plainridge Park in OPEN on November 10. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.
