The Meadows Pa Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609m
HUNTRESS (6) has been knocking on the door for a while then went close again last time over 1609m at Scioto Downs, finishing second and just 5 metres from the winner. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she has the ability to mix it with them. TIME OF THE SEASON (4) could only manage to finish fifth at her latest appearance over 1609m at this track, failing to live up to market expectations. Won't find this any harder and she can turn in a much better performance. BONITAS BEST BET (7) has a strong record here which is significant. Finished eighth over 1609m at Scioto Downs last time out. FUN TO LOVE N (3) must be considered after she finished runner-up over 1609m at this track a week ago.

Last start 6th (Fr1) over 1609m at this track beaten 12 m by Kandy Kiss (1:51.30) in FMOPEN HCP on November 4 at $5.30. Two runs back 4th (Fr5) over 1609m at Scioto Downs beaten 13 m by Hey Hey Mama (1:50.00) in NW11501L4 on October 23 at $5.10. Can't see her troubling these.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.5 m second behind Kandy Kiss at this track over 1609m FMOPEN HCP last start. Before that was beaten 3 metres third at Northfield Park same class on October 17. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 5th (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 12 m by Kandy Kiss (1:51.30) in FMOPEN HCP on November 4 at $1.40. At the previous start 6th (Fr7) over 1609m at Scioto Downs, beaten 14 m by Alwaysbpuffing (1:49.40) in OPEN II on October 23 at $11.70. Good enough to turn things around.

Solid run when a close second behind Seaside Diva at Dayton Raceway over 1609m in a FMNW8001L4 on October 8 at $9.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing second behind Hey Hey Mama at Scioto Downs over 1609m in a NW11501L4 on October 23 at $2.60. Nicely placed to take this out.
