Meadowlands Race 8 - Race 8
ZUMA BEACH (4) had been building to a win and it arrived last start when she scored by a neck over 1609m at Pocono Downs. Has the ability to take care of this field. JK PEARL STONE (6) was 2.25 metres away in second at this track over 1609m last start at her first run back from a spell. Meets a comparable field so she can keep the ball rolling. ABSOLUTE POWER (5) disappointed last time when eighth over 1609m at Pocono Downs. Can bounce back. PLEASE BE YOU (7) should be at her peak at the fourth run back from a spell, the latest outing a third at Yonkers Raceway two-and-a-half weeks ago.

Seven-year-old mare showed improvement last time. 3rd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 4.5 m by Sammy Jo Hanover (1:52.40) in FMNW5000CD on April 3 at $10.70. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into fourth behind Chanceoflightning at Yonkers Raceway over 1609m in a FMNW5846L5 on March 20 at $3.81. Impossible to entertain.

Having her second run back from a spell. Game effort when 2nd (Fr9) over 1609m at this track, beaten 2.25 m by Sammy Jo Hanover (1:52.40) in FMNW5000CD on April 3 at $13.30. Doesn't need to progress a great deal to be taking this out.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Nila Maree at Yonkers Raceway over 1609m in a FMW2BNM4PM on March 18 at $7.67. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Raspalia at Yonkers Raceway over 1609m in a FMW2BNM4PM on March 25 at $6.73. Chief contender.
