The Meadows Pa Race 2 - Race 2 - 1609M

HAPPY HOUR BLUES (3) has been racing well of late. Finished fourth at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 5 metres. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Big chance based on those recent efforts. FEAR THE PANDA (2) ran ninth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 55 metres. Expecting a very good run. CUMULUS BB (5) didn't do a bad job when fifth over 1609m at this track last time out. HARDBALL HANOVER (7) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at this track over 1609m.

Two back was well beaten into ninth behind Captivated at this track over 1609m in a CDCLMW1NW4 on March 27 at $50.80. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing third behind Gronk Hanover at this track over 1609m in a CDCLMW1NW4 on April 17 at $6.70. Big run expected.
