The Meadows Race 10 - Hector Fawley At Stud
DARNUM DUKE (1) ran a solid 28.83 when winning over 510m at Sale last start. In form and rates on top again. DARK MIRACLE (8) slotted in just off the lead from the wide draw last start and boxed on to finish third (34.83) at this track in a Grade 4/5 over 600m. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Can measure up. MAGIC SCOTCH (2) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fourth (28.44) last time in a Grade 4/5 at Bendigo. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. One of the main contenders. SMOOTH RANGER (4) cannot be ruled out.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors at big odds two back when third (35.42) over 600m at this track. Boxed awkwardly but is among the better hopes.

Missed the frame latest (35.06) when fourth over 600m at this track in a Grade 4/5. Has one success and two minors from five starts from box 6. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.

Latest effort finished 3rd on February 25 over 600m at this track behind Brindle Surprise beaten 5.5 lengths (34.83) in a Grade 4/5. Although unsuccessful last time still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Stick with him.
