The Meadows Pa Race 1 - Race 1 - 1609m
FOX VALLEY CHUCKLE (3) has been most impressive of late and he made it two in a row when successful at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, getting home by 5 metres. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Tackles a similar assignment and he can take care of this line-up. HE'S SO SMART (5) didn't do a bad job when fifth over 1609m at this track last time out. GLOWING LOU (1) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at this track over 1609m.

Four-year-old entire is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start posted a big 5 m win (Fr1) at this track (1:52.30) beating Doncic in CDCLMW1NW4 on August 27 at $2.40. Recent form hard to fault and is again a strong contender.
