Meadowlands Race 8 - Race 8
ERVIN HANOVER (2) made it three wins in a row last time out, getting home by 6 metres over 1609m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. Finds a nice race and will prove very tough to beat once more. CAPTAIN OPTIMISTIC (7) scored a decisive win last time out over 1609m at this track, getting home by 11 metres in an impressive display. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. This should be an easier assignment so he is set to continue his fine form. SWINGTOWN (3) is a big chance following a run of three top-three finishes, the latest at this track a week ago. Real threat to the top selections. CALICOJACK HANOVER (1) showed pleasing improvement last time out when third over 1609m at Mohawk Park.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.5 m third behind Waffle Blue Chip at Mohawk Park over 1609m OPEN last start. Before that was beaten 1.5 metres fourth again at Mohawk Park in CUP on June 13. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 17 m by Ervin Hanover (1:46.30) in BROWER-G3 on July 4 at $16.60. Showed ability the run before when he won by 1.5 m as favourite (Fr4) at Scioto Downs (1:49.00) beating Surreal Ideal in OPEN on June 27 at $1.40. Genuine chance.
