The Meadows Pa Race 9 - Race 9 - 1609m

ESPRESSO (1) could only manage to finish fifth at his latest appearance over 1609m at Pocono Downs, failing to live up to market expectations. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Finds a nice race and can turn things around. CHANNING (6) drew wide last start and was safely held, beaten 9 metres into sixth at this track over 1609m. Finds a suitable assignment and can bounce back into winning form. GRIZZ WYLLIE (4) is the next best after finishing runner-up over 1609m at this track last time out. YOU FOUND OUT (3) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Two back was well beaten into sixth behind Wild Bill Kelso at this track over 1609m in a 16000CLHC on August 20 at $13.90. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Passionate Promise at this track over 1609m in a 16000CLHC on August 27 at $9.40. Definite winning chance.
