Meadowlands Race 8 - Race 8
TRILLION TIMES (6) scored at the first run back from a break last time out over 1609m at Philadelphia on April 16, finishing 3 metres ahead of his rivals. Tackles a similar assignment and he can salute once again. CUSTOM FIT (5) registered another strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track, adding to an impressive run of top-three results. Tackles a similar assignment and he can go one better. SOUTHWIND MAC (8) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 0.6 metres at this track over 1609m. LOVE THIS BAR (4) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Didn't do much at the last run, 6th (Fr4) over 1609m at Monticello Raceway, beaten 65 m by Meadowbrook Dio (2:01.30) in NW600PSL5 on April 8 at $2.15. Before that 8th (Fr7) over 1609m at Pocono Downs, well beaten by Dart Guy (1:57.20) in 12500CLHC on March 16 at $8.60. Hard to envisage a win.

Solid run when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Steelworkers Story at this track over 1609m on April 10 at $3. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing third behind Calderone at this track over 1609m on April 17 at $12.70. Capable of a strong showing.
