Meadowlands Race 2 - Race 2
JK SIMCHA (5) opened her career in the best possible manner last start, scoring by 9 metres over 1609m at this track. Won't find this any harder and she can make it two for two. GIFT OF FAITH (6) produced a strong performance last time when she battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track. Good enough to put herself in the winners' stall. REAL CHOICE (1) is a big chance following a run of three top-three finishes, the latest at Tioga Downs a week ago. Real threat to the top selections. MIDWIND MERCEDES (4) is a two-year-old filly from the Nancy Takter yard on debut. Makes plenty of appeal.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4 m second behind Annie O at Tioga Downs over 1609m NYSS2YOF last start. Before that was beaten 0.9 metres second at Vernon Downs same class on July 19. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.

Solid performance when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Lyons Cariemontana at Pocono Downs over 1609m in a TSS 2YOF on July 19 at $2.20. Then a handy effort when a close third behind Perfect Body at this track over 1609m in a KNDRGARTEN on July 24 at $6.70. Well placed to go a couple better.
