The Meadows Race 2 - Home Of The Phoenix
VICTORY BARRY (7) was strong over this course and distance last time despite filling the minors, finishing 3.5 lengths behind Aston Machine in 30.14 and recording a new PB here. Has the ability and expected to go close. SPLIT FICTION (2) was quickly into stride on debut to score by 4 lengths (30.32) at this track over 525m. Drawn to be prominent early. Leading player again. TOTAL TEXAS (1) drew an outside box and was game in defeat when only half a length from the winner Blue Suede in second(30.39) at Dubbo. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Expecting another good run. TARBHACH (6) can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Last start finished 2nd over 516m at Dubbo beaten half a length (30.39) behind Blue Suede in a Mix on May 16. Found one better last time. Well placed and worth following up.

Showed good early speed on debut. Won easily by 4 lengths at this track (30.32) beating Da Souza in a Maiden on June 3. Will find this much tougher but he's got good box manners and speed. Expected to measure up again.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage sixth last time out over 525m at this track. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Finished fourth (26.01) last start at Warragul. Prior to that had recorded three minor placings in a row. Has to overcome a wide draw and will need the breaks to go his way.

Hit the frame latest (30.71) when third at this track in a Mix 6/7. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Tough line-up and may struggle.
