The Meadows Race 5

National Greyhound Adoption Month

Stake: $11,413

REITERATE (2) was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 6 length second (39.31) over 680m at Geelong. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Top chance in this line up. CRUTCHING TOMMY (8) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (35.79) at Dubbo. Form at the trip sound including three wins. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Expected to feature. WREN BALE (3) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, hitting the frame latest when 2nd at this track over 600m. The form from her last run stacks up well. Expected to be in the finish again. PAW ERINA (1) was in the money last start despite a big quote and is likely to feature again.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 6 length second (39.31) over 680m at Geelong. Well-performed from this draw. Key chance on best form.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 600m. Last start finished 3rd in a NG on March 8 over 605m at Dubbo behind Flash On By beaten 3.5 lengths (35.79). Has been around the mark at his last couple and should make his presence felt.
