The Meadows Pa Race 9 - Race 9 - 1609M
SNACK ATTACK (1) had to dig deep to salute at the most recent appearance over 1609m at Pocono Downs, getting home by just 0.9 metres. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Ideally placed and is sure to prove tough to beat again. MAKES SENSE (6) made it two wins from his last six appearances two weeks ago, getting home by 1.5 metres over 1609m at Pocono Downs. This should be an easier assignment so he is a major player again. SUGAR MAN (3) is on the radar after his last-start fifth over 1609m at Pocono Downs two weeks ago. INFLATION PROOF (4) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound third at Philadelphia over 1609m.
