The Meadows Race 12

Sportsbet Blackbook

Stake: $9,576

LAMIA NONNA MARY (1) jumped cleanly from the rails to lead much the way when third (30.22) at this track in a Grade 5 over 525m. Solid formlines coming through her last run. One of the leading chances. HOCUS POCUS (2) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fourth (30.15) last time in a Grade 5 at Sandown. Has a good record here including three wins. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Cannot be underestimated. KARUNA (7) was narrowly beaten when placing two back but missed the frame latest finishing fourth (26.42) in a Grade 5 H at Geelong. Expecting significant improvement this line-up. CANYA JUMP (8) can sneak into the finish.

Comments

Charged out of the boxes with a slick early split and went straight to the front, giving a huge sight but headed late when a 4 length third (30.22) over 525m at this track. In form and can return to the winners' list.
