Prairie Meadows Race 6 - 1M 1/2F Stakes
ZATARA (4) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at Listed level at Fonner Park (Dirt) over 1710m, beaten 0.3 lengths. Cherry-ripe now. A Birzer has registered three minor placings when on board. Should be in the finish. STRIKE RIDGE (1) could only manage fifth last start over 1207m at Oaklawn Park (Dirt), beaten 8 lengths. Hard to knock form this course having never missed the frame including four wins and one placing. Sure to be there at the business end. MENA (2) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fifth over 1609m at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Has the class to take this out. CONQUERING CAT (5) has switched yards since finishing fifth four weeks ago over 1609m at Oaklawn Park. Has ability and makes plenty of appeal.

Form hard to fault. Most recently 2nd of 8 at Fonner Park in LR on April 25 over 1710m, 0.3 len behind Cornishman carrying 56.5kg at $20.90. Before that won by 1.5 len at Tampa Bay Downs February 25 over 1646m defeating Digital Ops with 54kg at $7.50. Strong effort last time and looks a leading hope.

Form hard to fault. Returns from a 35-day let-up. At the latest run won by 0.8 len at Oaklawn Park April 18 over 1609m defeating Dick Best carrying 53.5kg at $10.30. The race before that held ground to the line 3rd of 9 at Oaklawn Park on March 27 over 1710m, 0.9 len behind Brittany's Dream carrying 56kg at $10.30. Impressive win last start and is in the mix again.
