The Meadows Pa Race 8 - Race 8 - 1609m
ILIKEITLIKETHAT (2) drew wide last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 200 metres into ninth at this track over 1609m. Won't find this any harder and from this more favourable draw he can turn the recent result around. JACKS HIGH HANOVER (4) filled a minor placing at this track two runs ago before finishing second at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten a neck. Big chance if things go his way. THREE WAY ACTION (5) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 8 metres at this track over 1609m. SWEET MATE (1) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound third at Pocono Downs over 1609m.

Fair run when beaten by 4.5 m finishing third behind Allnight Kid at this track over 1609m in a TSS-2YOCG on July 25 at $9.60. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Celtic Wave at Pocono Downs over 1609m in a TSS 2YRCG on August 3 at $14. In the mix from the inside draw.

Last start was well beaten into ninth behind Lord Strange at this track over 1609m in a NW2EXTPM on July 31 at $6.10. Performed better the start before with a solid effort when 3rd (Fr3) over 1609m at this track beaten 3 m by Dramas (1:53.10) in NW2EXTPM on July 24 at $2.40. Should be right in the finish.

Last start 4th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track, beaten 15 m by Shaw Time (1:51.30) in NW2EXTPM on August 6 at $74.70. Two runs back 6th (Fr3) over 1609m at Northfield Park beaten 30 m by Worknupalather (1:55.00) in NW1PMLC on April 12 at $7.10. Likely to find it too tough.

Two back was well beaten into second behind Lord Strange at this track over 1609m in a NW2EXTPM on July 31 at $20.70. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Shaw Time at this track over 1609m in a NW2EXTPM on August 6 at $5.30. Strong winning hope.

Hard to fault of late. Last start won by 8 m as favourite (Fr6) at this track (1:53.30) beating Earn My Bet in NW1EXTPM on July 30 at $2.10. Must be respected.
