Meadowlands Race 11 - Race 11
PRACTICAL MAN (4) resumes after finishing tenth at his latest appearance at this track on November 1. Talented and has plenty of upside. Finds a nice race and will take plenty of beating. DOLLAR DRAFT (1) resumes from a spell of seven months after closing off last campaign in good form, the last run being a solid second over 1609m at The Red Mile. Has the benefit of a good draw. Well-placed to take this out. STEELWORKERS STORY (2) is better than his last-start ninth over 1609m at this track. ICE FALL (8) finished 21 metres back in fifth over 1609m at Pocono Downs recently at his first race start. Strips fitter and can improve.
