The Meadows Pa Race 7 - Race 7 - 1609M
NICKELBACK (3) has been racing very well of late and went close again last time over 1609m at this track, finishing second and 0.6 metres from the winner. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field and he can take this out. THE REAL THING (4) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 1609m at Northfield Park last time out. IMA PROUD CAPTAIN (6) is capable of better after finishing well back when resuming over 1609m at this track a week ago.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing second behind Dark Soul at this track over 1609m in a W1NW4EXTPM on March 26 at $6.80. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Thunder Jam at this track over 1609m in a NW2EXTPM on April 8 at $4.40. This race appears well within his grasp.
