Colonial Downs Race 8 - Shenandoah S. Stakes
MEILANI (2) finished second two runs back at Listed level at Woodbine All Weather then improved last time out to score by half a length over 1308m at Listed level at Woodbine All Weather. Finds a suitable race and can build on that last-start success. FINAL ACCORD (6) is a talented filly who was well held last time in tougher grade over 1609m in stakes class at Churchill Downs Turf (Turf). Well placed in an easier grade here and can bounce back. SPINELLI (5) continues to race well with a win two back at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic) before finishing 2.25 lengths away in second last time over 1106m in stakes class at Monmouth Park Turf (Turf). Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. One of the main contenders. TAP INTO GRACE (1) showed little early speed then came with a powerful run to finish third last time out over 1106m at Listed level at Monmouth Park Turf (Turf). Will find this much easier. Solid claims on her best form.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 41 day let-up. Last start came from midfield and won by 0.5 len at Woodbine All Weather LR June 28 over 1308m defeating Happy Destination with 53.5kg at $3.70. Before that tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd in a small field at Woodbine All Weather in LR on May 16 over 1408m, 0.1 len behind Dixie Law with 53.5kg at $11.30. Got the job done last time and is a leading hope again.

Comes off a 34 day let-up. At the latest run ran second last in a small field at Monmouth Park Turf in LR on July 5 over 1106m, 3 len behind Gerrards Cross carrying 53kg at $2.50. The race before that made ground from midfield; 2nd of 9 at Monmouth Park Turf on May 30 over 1106m, nose behind Allison Park with 53.5kg at $4.20. Racing okay but look elsewhere.

Second-up eased back early on ran second last in a small field at Saratoga Turf in the G3 Coronation Cup Stakes on July 18 over 1106m, 8 len behind Cy Fair carrying 56kg at $16.26. Safely held last time out but this suits.

At debut, settled back and ran on when 4th of 8 at Delaware Park on July 21 over 1106m, 9 len behind Oak Brook Lady with 56.5kg at $20.40. Encouraging signs on debut but this looks a tough assignment.
