The Meadows Pa Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609M

SWEET BALLAD (2) made it two in succession last start when she got the cash by 6 metres over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Good enough to take out a race like this. WUNDERKINDBLUECHIP (3) resumes here after closing her last prep with a sixth at Meadowlands on December 5. Has ability and should be right in the finish. KANDY KISS (1) is the next best after finishing runner-up over 1609m at this track last time out. EVA'S STAR (5) is in the mix following a sixth at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Four-year-old mare is racing in fine form. Won her last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start won by 6 m as favourite (Fr2) at this track (1:52.30) beating Kandy Kiss in FMW3NW6EXT on March 12 at $1.80. Recent form hard to fault and is again a strong contender.
