Meadowlands Race 9 - Race 9
INTL BLOCKADE (5) produced a better effort last start, finishing fifth over 1609m at this track. Meets a comparable field so he can add to the sound recent effort. LORANGA (4) resumes here after closing his last campaign with a sixth at Philadelphia on December 11. Expecting a very good run. GILLYS DE VIE (6) is on the radar after his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track a week ago. REMARKABLE DE VIE (3) is next best and gets every chance from a favourable draw.
