The Meadows Pa Race 1 - Race 1 - 1609m

GEOLOGIC (5) scored a decisive win last time out over 1609m at Plainridge Park, getting home by 12 metres in an impressive display. This looks a sterner test than last time but he is capable of saluting again. HIGHLAND DESTINY (4) ran sixth last start at Meadowlands over 1609m, beaten 13 metres. Talented and has plenty of upside. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. MR BIG SPENDER (1) is usually thereabouts and looks a strong winning hope this time following a last-start fifth at this track. Rarely lets backers down. HIGHBALL HANOVER (3) is worth some thought after his last-start fourth over 1609m at Meadowlands on August 7.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 6th (Fr4) over 1609m at Meadowlands beaten 13 m by Apex (1:50.40) in HAMBO E on August 1 at $93.20. The run previous 6th (Fr2) over 1609m at Meadowlands, beaten 15 m by Minoan (1:52.20) in TOMPKINS on July 25 at $2.40. Worth another chance. Leading contender.
