Meadowlands Race 6 - Race 6
AZRAEL BLUE CHIP (4) has been very good at both appearances this prep. Scored first up at this track then finished a neck from the winner in second over 1609m at this track at the latest run a week ago. Meets a similar line up and he can take this out. THISBEESTINGS DEO (7) is in good form with top-five finishes at his last nine starts, most recently recording a third over 1609m at this track. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. His recent form is good enough to take out a race like this. SONOFANUTCRACKER (9) ended last prep with a sixth at this track over 1609m six-and-a-half months ago. Capable of a forward showing while fresh. A PERFECT MOMENT (2) is next best and gets every chance from a favourable draw.

Three-year-old colt lining up for the second time. At debut 4th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track, beaten 12 m by Bookie J (1:50.00) in NJSS-PLTNM on May 2 at $28.20. Strips fitter and is open to plenty of improvement.

Two back was well beaten into second behind Bookie J at this track over 1609m in a HOME GROWN on April 25 at $10.70. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing third behind Bookie J at this track over 1609m in a NJSS-PLTNM on May 2 at $13.70. Rates highly. Big chance.
