The Meadows Race 9 - Gorski Truck And Trailer
MEPUNGA DONNA (8) should get a clear run from the wide draw. Safely held last start when a 5 length 6th at this track (35.00). Form here at this distance is strong including two wins. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and five minor placings to her credit. Looks the one to beat on her best form. DERRY (2) was strongly fancied last time but ran below expectations when fourth (42.65), beaten 10 lengths. Should be about the money. ASCEND GERANIUM (5) has been out of the placings last two but prior to that clocked a handy 30.98 win over 545m at Ballarat. Top win three back and can measure up again. PAW FORTRESS (7) can sneak into the finish.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and tends to spot them a start in her races, The latest effort was a 3 length fourth over 715m at Sandown. Tempted to look elsewhere.

Well supported here last start but let backers down, finishing finished 4th in a Grade 5 on October 22 over 715m at Sandown behind Slick Nitro beaten 10 lengths (42.65). Placed two back at Sandown. Has been racing well. Well placed here and looks a leading contender.

Missed the frame latest (42.48) when fifth over 715m at Sandown in a Grade 4/5. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Looks suited here and can measure up on best.
