The Meadows Race 3 - Sportsbet Ht1
MEPUNGA ENVY (6) lines up chasing another win after scoring over 525m at this track in 30.30, set up by a fast early sectional. Solid formlines coming through his last run. One of the key runners again. BRAVE ISLAND (8) has been out of the placings at his last couple but on the winners' heels when placing three back (19.38) in a Grade 6 at Healesville. Well placed here and should do much better. IN MODERATION (4) was safely held last time out, finishing sixth at Healesville over 350m behind Patriot Burst (20.35) in a Mix 6/7. Was a winner the start prior. Leading chance. PAW BRUTUS (2) can improve on an unplaced run here last time out.

Has finished fourth at her last couple of starts, most recently at Geelong over 460m. Others hold stronger claims.

Had been racing in honest fashion, recording three placings in a row, before finishing fifth (30.88) at this track last start. Drawn a inside box but looks a each way chance only this field.
