Meadowlands Race 9 - Race 9
TARANAKI (2) finished fifth last start, beaten 6 metres at this track over 1609m. Expected to run well. SOLID CHARACTER (1) is on the radar after his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track a week ago. CAVIART LOTUS (5) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fifth at this track over 1609m.
