The Meadows Pa Race 8 - Race 8 - 1609m
ELAN HANOVER (2) has been knocking on the door for a while then went close again last time over 1609m at Tioga Downs, finishing third and just 18 metres from the winner. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he good enough to play a major role. ROYAL ENTERPRISE (1) drew a wide gate last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 90 metres into eighth at Northfield Park over 1609m. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Has the talent to take care of this field. SUMMER NIGHTS (3) was responsible for a better effort last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track. Should run a big race. SKYLINE VALENTINO (4) must be respected after scoring last start by 2.25 metres at this track over 1609m.
