Meadowlands Race 9 - Race 9
GORGEOUS BIG GUY (4) registered a strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a major role. CHRISTOPHER DANCE N (6) finished fifth last start, beaten 23 metres at Pocono Downs over 1609m. Expect him to be prominent. VOUKEFALAS (3) is better than his last-start eighth over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway. CAPTAIN CRUSADER A (5) is the next elect off a last-start win by 6 metres at Philadelphia over 1609m.

Last start 2nd (Fr4) over 1609m at Pocono Downs beaten 6 m by Imgoingtojackson (1:51.40) in W6-8PM CG on September 5 at $3.50. Two runs back posted a big 7 m win as favourite (Fr3) at Pocono Downs (1:50.30) beating Blue Hunt in NW5500L5 on August 25 at $2. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten.

Last start was well beaten into fifth behind Jolimont at Pocono Downs over 1609m in a WO25000LT on October 3 at $2.60. Performed better the start before where he won by 2.25 m as favourite (Fr5) at Philadelphia (1:49.10) beating Wehadababyetzaboy in W/O 10K on September 20 at $1.20. Definite winning chance.
