The Meadows Race 3 - Sportsbet Ht3
MEPUNGA SPIRIT (2) is a newcomer for the Jeffrey Britton kennel. Gets every chance from the inside draw. Expected to be well fancied and can make an immediate impact. FLYING ROYCE (7) makes his debut without a trial but profiles well for first outing. Likely to run well. NARINGAL LAD (8) had the drop on the lead and went on to be beaten 7 lengths into third (30.92) at this track in a Maiden over 525m. Must be included in calculations. SPORT SCOUT (5) has ability and can feature with the right run after missing a cheque here most recently.

Finished third last start (30.18) at big odds over 515m at Sandown. Draws the cherry this time. Has to do a bit more.

First race starter by Fernando Bale from Mepunga Isla. He looks suitably boxed. Expected to measure up.

Has finished fourth at his last couple of starts, most recently at Geelong over 460m. Better off looking to others.

Goes well at this track and trip. Most recent effort finished 5th on February 21 over 525m at this track behind Tarwillie beaten 11 lengths (30.79) in a Maiden SF. The form from the last run stacks up nicely. Worth following up.

Debutante by Aston Fastnet from Surprising. Profiles well and can get off the mark here.

Is a three start maiden overdue for a win, hitting the frame last start when third (30.92) over 525m at this track. Best form too good to ignore.
