The Meadows Pa Race 1 - Race 1 - 1609M
ADAMSVILLE ROAD (5) has been racing well, filling a top-five position at his last 10 starts including a second most recently at Miami Valley Raceway over 1609m. This doesn't look as hard so he is set to continue his impressive recent form. SFORZA (6) made it two wins from his last three runs a week ago, getting home by 2.25 metres over 1609m at this track. Primary contender in this comparable race. BIG BOY ERNEST (4) 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. DEJERATE HANOVER (2) is the best of the rest after finishing fourth over 1609m at this track last time out.

Last start 4th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track, beaten 6 m by Sforza (1:54.10) in OPEN HCP on February 19 at $23.90. At his previous start solid effort when 2nd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, beaten 5 m by Jogging Full Trot (1:55.20) in NW13500L4 on February 12 at $1.60. Doesn't need to improve much to play a role in the finish.

Scored at his last two starts. Last start posted a big 5 m win (Fr2) at this track (1:55.20) beating Dejerate Hanover in NW13500L4 on February 12 at $2.30. Despite winning form this is likely to prove too tough.

Fair performance when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Sforza at this track over 1609m in a OPEN HCP on January 22 at $1.10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Oh Look Magic at Miami Valley Raceway over 1609m in a OPEN HC on February 18 at $9.60. Well placed, should prove hard to beat.
