The Meadows Pa Race 12 - Race 12 - 1609M
PANTS ON FIRE (6) is yet to have his colours lowered in four runs this campaign, most recently getting home by 10 metres over 1609m at Miami Valley Raceway. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. This doesn't look as hard so he is a major player again. BUCKEYEBOLLINGER N (8) was struggling to make his mark before the latest appearance when he scored by 2.25 metres over 1609m at this track. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to cope. LITENINGONTHEBEACH (2) is on the radar after his last-start fifth over 1609m at this track eight days ago. LUNAR (3) must be included after winning his past five starts, the latest at this track eight days ago.

Hard to fault of late. Last start won by 6 m as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:51.20) beating Annapolis Hanover in NW4850L4 on April 24 at $1.70. One of the better hopes.

Brings the right form to the table. Posted a big 10 m win as favourite (Fr6) at Miami Valley Raceway (1:51.20) beating Trip Hammer in NW6001L4 on April 12 at $1.30. Two runs back won by 2.25 m as favourite (Sr1) at Miami Valley Raceway (1:49.40) beating Boomerang in NW6PM on March 29 at $2.20. Going extremely well and can win again.
