The Meadows Pa Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609M

DRAGON CITY (1) Assumed control from the start when winning by a margin of a nose last run here and can save some energy from the draw. Must respect. SANDBETWEENMYTOES (4) Close to a win last start at the track. Strong chance. PATRONUS STAR N (6) Ran on strongly to win last run at this venue. On a winning streak the last 2 attempts. Will be trying to topple them late. Can measure up to this company. MELANION N (7) Was agonizingly close last time here. Driver Drew Monti and trainer Maria E Rice are a proven combination. Producing consistent results this campaign. Has a great burst of speed late. Serious player.

Has been racing well this preparation and showed plenty of improvement following January 10 run. Just managed to hang on and win won by a 0.9 m as favourite (Fr5) at this track (1:53.00) beating Mantador in NW5500L4 on January 17 at $1.90. This race will be harder than that win.
