The Meadows Race 9 - Di Battista Real Estate
DISTINCTION (8) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by 4.5 lengths at Horsham in a handy 26.77 beating Doongalla Don. The form out of her last race has been franked. Can measure up again. MAV REIKO (7) has mixed form a little and missed the frame the last two but was a Special conditions H winner three back (30.00) at Geelong over 520m. Can turn it around this time. PAW WAVERLY (1) was strongly fancied on the back of a win two starts back but finished second last time (29.09) at Sale. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Hard to beat again. PAW NIMBUS (2) has a solid strike rate at this distance.

Hasn't produced too much recently, and faces tougher opposition here. Others preferred at this stage.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (30.01) at big odds over 525m at this track. Has a squeeze box to navigate and needs to find best form to feature.

Charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but swamped late when a close up fourth (29.66) at Sandown over 515m. Has clocked a scorching 29.57 here at this trip. Leading player.
