The Meadows Pa Race 2 - Race 2 - 1609m
BLYTHE HANOVER (5) was out of the money two runs back at this track then was at her best last start to score by 3 metres over 1609m at the same circuit. Her last-start form is good enough to put her right in the finish. SALT WATER TAFFY (4) turned in a poor effort by her standards last start when 30 metres away in sixth over 1609m at Meadowlands. Form prior to that had been solid. This doesn't look as hard so she is a major player. FROLIC (7) is the next best after finishing runner-up over 1609m at this track last time out. ALDIVA HANOVER (6) cannot be left out after recording a sequence of three top-three finishes, the latest at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago.

Well beaten last start by Blythe Hanover, a rival who she faces again; when 120 metres sixth at this track over 1609m in a 2YOFNW1EXT race on August 5. Can't have on that basis.

Well-beaten 26 days ago at Philadelphia over 1609m, and two back 6th (Fr8) over 1609m at Meadowlands beaten 45 m by Whoopdedoo Hanover (1:55.40) in NJSS-SILVR on July 17 at $60.60. Happy to work around her.

Last start 6th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track, beaten 65 m by Ready Set Goo (1:56.40) in 2YOFNW1EXT on August 12 at $13.70. Two runs back 3rd (Fr3) over 1609m at this track beaten 9 m by Blythe Hanover (1:57.40) in 2YOFNW1EXT on August 5 at $16.60. Would rather see in something easier.

Last start was well beaten into sixth behind Athena's Girl at Meadowlands over 1609m in a KNDRGARTEN on August 7 at $45.10. Raced better the start before that where she won by 4 m (Fr4) at this track (1:57.30) beating Sister Saloon in FMNW1EXTPM on July 29 at $5.60. Should be right in the finish.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Daringly at this track over 1609m in a POPUP2YOF on July 15 at $27. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second behind The Captain's Wife at this track over 1609m in an ARDEN 2YOF on July 24 at $23.30. Big run expected.
