The Meadows Pa Race 3 - Race 3 - 1609M
SUM KIND OF FIRE (5) resumes from a spell of seven months after closing off last campaign in good form, the last run being a solid second over 1609m at this track. Sure to prove hard to beat on his return. TS CODY (6) opened his career in pleasing fashion a week ago, finishing second and beaten 0.9 metres over 1609m at this track. Won't find this any harder and he can take this out. SAY LESS (4) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at Miami Valley Raceway. Can make amends. WESTERN ARTIST (1) is a three-year-old gelding by Wild Wild Western from Marcydarcy Hanover on debut. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Capable of taking this out.

Three-year-old gelding by Wild Wild Western out of Marcydarcy Hanover on debut. Finished fifth at The Meadows in a trial on March 31 over 1609m. Worth keeping safe.

Returns after seven months in the paddock. Finished off last preparation when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Ima Proud Captain at this track over 1609m in a NW1EXTPM on September 10 at $5.80. Hard to roll on current form.

Three-year-old gelding facing the starter for the second time. At debut good run when 2nd (Fr8) over 1609m at this track beaten 0.9 m by Wild Brew (1:55.00) in NW1EXTPM on April 1 at $18.60. Likely improver who can build on the first-up effort.
