The Meadows Pa Race 9 - Race 9 - 1609M

MY FIRST FIRE (2) finished seventh two starts ago then recorded an effortless win last time out, scoring by 70 metres over 1609m at Shenandoah Downs. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is up to the challenge. BROOKS (4) finished sixth at this track two runs ago before a comparable effort at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 12 metres. This doesn't look as hard so he is sure to prove tough to beat. BEN RACIN (1) must be considered after he finished third over 1609m at this track six days ago. FIVE (3) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at this track. Can bounce back.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 5th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track beaten 12 m by Don't B Blue (1:52.00) in 12000CLHC on May 2 at $30.40. At the previous start 6th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 14 m by Enrico Pallazzo (1:52.00) in CDCLMNW8 on April 17 at $57.10. Expecting a spike in form this time.

Racing consistently with minor placings at his last two starts. Placed last start 3rd (Fr5) over 1609m at Northfield Park, beaten 6 m by Bait A Hook (1:54.30) in NW1500L4 on April 28 at $1.90. Before that 3rd (Sr1) over 1609m at Northfield Park beaten 8 m by Deciding Factor (1:55.10) in NW1500L4 on April 14 at $1.80. Unlikely to make an impression.
