The Meadows Pa Race 13 - Race 13 - 1609M
PD'S DIAMOND HOPE (3) again drew a wide gate last start but produced a strong effort, beaten 3 metres into second at this track over 1609m. No excuses from this more advantageous draw. Leading hope if things fall his way. NIGHT WARRIOR (4) finished eighth two starts ago then recorded a commanding win last start, scoring by 30 metres over 1609m at this track. Primary contender in this comparable race. FEAR THE PANDA (2) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid fourth at this track over 1609m. Hard to find fault. GROOVIN WILL (5) disappointed last time when ninth over 1609m at this track. Can do a lot better so worth considering.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing second behind Notorious Hanover at this track over 1609m in a W2NW5EXTPM on March 6 at $11.80. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Vino at this track over 1609m in a W2NW5EXTPM on March 13 at $5.30. Has the right credentials to take this out.
