The Meadows Pa Race 11 - Race 11 - 1609M

AIN'TPLAYINNICE (7) was responsible for a good effort at his latest appearance to get home by a narrow margin over 1609m at Hoosier Park on April 23. Must overcome a very wide draw. Stepping up a level this time but he is good enough to take this out. GOOD FRIDAY (5) has been a model of consistency of late and deserved his win last start, scoring by 1.5 metres over 1609m at Philadelphia. Meeting a deeper field this time but he good enough to play a major role. GHETTO LOUPASTAR (4) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at Philadelphia six days ago. KISS IN THE SKY (3) is the best of the rest after finishing third over 1609m at Philadelphia last time out.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing second behind Twin B Fresh Bet at Philadelphia over 1609m in a CGNW1PM on April 12 at $10.10. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Im A Real American at Philadelphia over 1609m in a CGNW3PM on April 23 at $25.60. Plenty to like about his prospects.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Barrow at Pocono Downs over 1609m in a NW2PM CG on March 31 at $34.30. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Good Friday at Philadelphia over 1609m in a CGNW3PM on April 26 at $5.10. Has the right credentials to take this out.
