The Meadows Pa Race 12 - Race 12 - 1609M

JOYFUL HANOVER (2) resumes from a spell of seven months after closing off last campaign in good form, the last run being a solid third over 1609m at Pocono Downs. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Likely to run a big race to kick off this campaign. ALWAYS BY THE SEA (7) was in the money at Monticello Raceway two runs ago before finishing third at her latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 1.5 metres. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Primary contender if she is at her best. VENUS N SERENA (5) ended last prep with a fourth at Mohawk Park over 1609m six-and-a-half months ago. Capable of a forward showing while fresh. SARA B DELIGHT (6) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fifth at Monticello Raceway over 1609m.
