The Meadows Race 4 - Home Of The Phoenix
BOBBY BACCALA (2) stalked the lead after a clean break from the tricky draw and went on to finish second (30.80) at this track in a Grade 5 over 525m. Deserves serious consideration. ASTON BAMFORD (3) last start finished 4th in a Grade 5 NP on January 20 over 515m at Sandown behind Paw Larry beaten 8 lengths (30.32). Looks well placed here and among the chances. OBSTROPALOUS (8) was popular in betting last start but disappointed when 8 lengths away in fourth (30.78). Was in the money the start prior. Must be included in calculations. ALMOST IMMINENT (4) cannot be left out after placing here at this trip last start.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and tends to spot them a start in her races, Last start finished seventh over 460m at Geelong, beaten 14 lengths. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Latest effort finished 4th in a Grade 5 NP on January 20 over 515m at Sandown behind Paw Larry beaten 8 lengths (30.32). Has been around the mark at his last couple and should make his presence felt.

Finished in the minors last time when third (30.93) at this track, making it two placings on end. Will need a little luck early from the draw. Cannot be ruled out.

Was out of the placings last time at this track but prior to that had been racing consistently, notching three minors in a row. Has a wide draw to navigate and will need a little luck to feature.
