The Meadows Pa Race 9 - Race 9 - 1609m
ODDS ON FAVORITE (5) showed plenty of fight to salute last time out over 1609m at this track, getting home by just a neck. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to cope. MORE THAN GUAPO (6) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 1609m at Philadelphia last time out. ALWAYS B HULA (3) is the best of the rest after finishing fourth first-up over 1609m at this track last time out.

Returns from the paddock. Previously first up won by 4.5 m (Fr7) at Pocono Downs (1:55.30) beating Pucky in NW1PM CG on March 30 at $10.20. One of the better hopes.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Its My Era at this track over 1609m in a NW1EXTPM on August 7 at $12.40. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Fox Valley Endzone at this track over 1609m in a CGNW1EXTPM on October 1 at $10.60. Capable of testing this line-up.

Racing consistently with minor placings at his last two starts at this course. Placed last start 3rd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, beaten 4.5 m by The Real Thing (1:55.10) in CDCLMNW2 on July 9 at $4.20. Before that 3rd (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, beaten 15 m by The Real Thing (1:54.00) in CDCLMW1NW4 on June 27 at $3.20. Might find this too tough.
