The Meadows Pa Race 8 - Race 8 - 1609m

AL PAPI (3) produced a strong effort last time over 1609m at Pocono Downs, finishing 6 metres from the winner in third, adding to his impressive overall record. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Has the ability to take this out. PAPI RICK (6) has drawn wide in recent runs. Failed to feature last time out when fifth over 1609m at The Red Mile. This should be an easier assignment so he is in the right race to return to form. THAI HANOVER (4) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 5 metres at Pocono Downs over 1609m. EASY BREEZE (1) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Pocono Downs.
