The Meadows Race 10 - Onthestraight.com.au

OPAWA POSTMAN (7) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (30.32) last time out at this track. Has never been out of the money in four starts this course. Must come into calculations. PAW BRUTUS (2) had been in super honest form hitting the frame two times on end before finishing fourth (26.71) at Warragul last time. Form at the trip sound including two wins. Can measure up this time. BLACK MARVEL (6) clocked a speedy 28.06 finishing third in a Grade 4/5 at Bendigo last start. This is tougher but looks a leading chance again. IVORY INZAI (1) missed the placings here most recently but can sneak into the finish with the right run.
