The Meadows Pa Race 8 - Race 8 - 1609M
SOUTHWIND CASPIAN (4) ran eighth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 90 metres. Primary contender in a similar assignment. ARCH HILL (1) finished sixth last start, beaten 18 metres at Scioto Downs over 1609m. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. DELA GRANDE (2) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 0.6 metres at this track over 1609m. ROAN RIDGE (3) is worth some thought after his last-start fifth over 1609m at this track on October 22.
