The Meadows Race 12

Sportsbet Green Tick

Stake: $3,874

SMALLER ACTS (1) has some solid form under his belt and proved too strong last time to win by 4.5 lengths at Shepparton in a handy 25.63 beating Shrek's Brother. Has performed well from this box with a win and three minor placings to his name from five starts. The hardest to beat again. PAW HARRY (6) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing sixth (30.79) in a Grade 5 at this track. Solid record at the distance winning five races. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and six minor placings to his credit. Should play a prominent role. PRINCE PIERRE (3) showed good early burn but run over late to finish 7th at Sandown in Grade 5 company. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings four times from six starts. Worth another chance. VINTAGE KING (2) is likely to have admirers.

Continued winning form with another impressive display after leading to make it back-to-back wins at Shepparton over 450m (25.63). Looks suited and should go close again.

Was out of placings last time (28.99) at Bendigo in a Grade 5, finishing eighth and beaten 15 lengths. Has three successes and three minors from nine starts from box 2. Suited here and expected to run well.

Was out of placings last time (30.42) at Sandown in a Grade 5, finishing seventh and beaten 11 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed four times. Has ability and looks a key chance.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (30.79) in a Grade 5, finishing a 8 length sixth. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and six minors. Key chance and should go close.

Could only manage fifth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when second (30.54) over 525m at this track. Has a wide draw to navigate and prefer each-way.

Comments

Strongly fancied last time and hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but could manage only second (19.55) at Healesville over 350m. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card at the latest appearance. Worth following up.
