The Meadows Pa Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609m
STAY ON TRACK (2) turned in yet another strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track, adding to a string of recent minor placings. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a similar line up and he can take this out. WHITE ROOM (4) has had three runs this campaign without filling a placing. Added to the sequence last time over 1609m at this track, finishing 12 metres away from the winner in fourth. Good enough to take out a race like this. DIAL TONE (5) didn't do a bad job when fifth over 1609m at this track last time out. O CRUNCH (3) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.
