Meadowlands Race 4 - Race 4
PERFECT HOPE DEO (5) has been most impressive of late and she made it two in a row when successful at her latest appearance over 1609m at this track, getting home by 2.25 metres. Has the talent to take care of this field. STERL THE PEARL (2) added to her recent string of strong performances last start when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 2.25 metres. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a major role again. WENDY J STINGS (6) is on the radar after her last-start sixth over 1609m at this track six days ago. REAL CHOICE (4) is worth some thought after her last-start fifth over 1609m at Batavia Downs on August 19.

Two-year-old filly is racing in fine form. Won her last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start won by 2.25 m (Fr6) at this track (1:52.10) beating Sterl The Pearl in KNDRGARTEN on August 29 at $2.60. No reason she cannot chalk-up the hat-trick.
