Meadowlands Race 2 - Race 2
MAGIC MELVIN (6) ran seventh last start at Monticello Raceway over 1609m, beaten 90 metres. Steps up a level but he is capable of running a big race. HOOFBEATS DE VIE (5) ran third last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 16 metres. Expecting a very good run. BIG NUDGE (4) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 9 metres at this track over 1609m. REMARKABLE DE VIE (7) disappointed last time when sixth over 1609m at this track. Can do a lot better so worth considering.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Calderone at this track over 1609m on April 17 at $41.90. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Love This Bar at this track over 1609m on April 24 at $76.30. Rates highly. Big chance.

Didn't impress first-up beaten 90 m seventh behind Andover Contessa at Monticello Raceway in a NW750PSL5 on April 29. Will be fitter for that last run.
