The Meadows Pa Race 9 - Race 9 - 1609M
ALFREDO HANOVER (3) recorded another strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to finish second over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. LORD STRANGE (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 Northfield Park. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Will have plenty of admirers. TRUMP ROLLS (1) is in the mix at his first run since finishing third over 1609m at Philadelphia seven months ago. DANCIN COMMANDER (5) is worth some thought after his last-start fourth over 1609m at this track on April 1.

Returns after seven months in the paddock. Finished off last preparation when well beaten into third behind Justinian at Philadelphia over 1609m in a 2YO NW2 on September 14 at $14.50. Should be right in the finish.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Quill Gordon at this track over 1609m in a NW1EXTPM on March 18 at $5.80. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Undercover Speed at this track over 1609m in a NW1EXTPM on April 1 at $2.80. In fine form. Big chance.

Three-year-old colt facing the starter for the second time. At debut 5th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 35 m by Wild Brew (1:55.00) in NW1EXTPM on April 1 at $5.80. Strips fitter and is open to plenty of improvement.

Resuming after a layoff of 17 months. Well beaten at the end of his last preparation at this course and distance when ninth at very long odds behind Gannon's Veloucity. Looks to be making up the numbers.

Comes here second-up after a week. Lacklustre first-up performance when 7th (Fr1) over 1609m at this track, beaten 55 m by Undercover Speed (1:56.10) in NW1EXTPM on April 1 at $28. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.
