Meadowlands Race 5 - Race 5
DA DELIGHTFUL (1) has had three runs this campaign without filling a placing. Was again unable to find the frame last start when he finished eighth over 1609m at Pocono Downs, beaten 30 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Finds a suitable assignment and can take this out. XPERT (4) finished second at this track two runs ago before a less impressive effort at his latest appearance over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway, beaten 24 metres. Beautifully placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. CAMARA MOMENT (6) is in the mix following a sixth at his first run back over 1609m at this track. CENTURY HEINEKEN (10) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound second at Yonkers Raceway over 1609m.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 8th (Fr5) over 1609m at Pocono Downs beaten 30 m by Endofstory (1:49.30) in NW15500L5 on October 10 at $48.40. The run prior 6th (Fr5) over 1609m at Pocono Downs beaten 50 m by Always A Thrill (1:48.20) in NW20500L5 on October 3 at $33.90. Good enough to make amends in this line-up.
