The Meadows Pa Race 9 - Race 9 - 1609M
COMMANDER FRANK (5) finished fifth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 15 metres, after a modest third at this track the run prior. Meets a comparable field and he can turn in a much better performance. DUDE INCLUDED (1) has been racing well, filling a top-five position at his last five starts including a second most recently at this track over 1609m. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Finds a tougher race but a win is not out of the question. SPICY NUGGET (3) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when he finished third at this track over 1609m. REDWHITE N GOO (2) disappointed last time but is a chance based on a good third over 1609m at this track two runs back.
