The Meadows Race 3 - Sportsbet Ht3
MEPUNGA SUMMIT (2) has his first outing without a trial but profiles nicely for this. Rates a leading player and bold showing expected. ASTON MACHINE (6) has finished in the money in each of his three runs so far, the latest when third (29.99) at Sandown. Overdue for a win and looks a leading chance here. INDY ALEX (3) produced a modest effort most recently when fifth at this track over 525m behind Scary Storm (31.82) in a Maiden. Was in the money the start prior. Worth following up. TRIVIA MASTER (1) is in the mix after placing last time out.

Good effort last time when second (26.57) over 460m at Geelong. Has the inside draw this time. Cannot be ruled out.

Debutante by Fernando Bale from Mepunga Isla. He looks suitably boxed. Profiles well and can get off the mark here.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (24.28) over 425m at Bendigo. Drawn awkwardly. Prefer others.

Racing well without winning, recording three minors on end, the latest hitting the ground running with a fast early sectional but finishing in the minors again when third (29.99) over 515m at Sandown. Deserves a win and gets his chance.
