The Meadows Pa Race 3 - Race 3 - 1609m

BETTER OPTION (1) was responsible for a far better performance last time out when he scored by 4 metres over 1609m at this track. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to make it two on the trot. BEN RACIN (6) finished seventh at this track two runs ago before a comparable effort at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 20 metres. Has the talent to take care of this field. COALFORD BET ALINE (4) is the next elect off a last-start win by 5 metres at this track over 1609m. MAJOR KEY (7) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.
