The Meadows Race 5 - Sportsbet (1-6 Wins) Final
UNIQUE STAR (1) charged out of the boxes with a fast early split and led throughout to score when a 2 length winner (34.45) over 600m at this track. Has hit winning form and can measure up again. LAMIA TAYA (8) stalked lead from an outside box last start before finishing second (34.84) at this track in a Restricted WIN H over 600m. Has performed well from this box with a win and four minor placings to her name from seven starts. Overdue and is among the main hopes. BALDING SANDY (7) boxed on well to finish second last time, beaten 2 lengths (34.58) behind UNIQUE STAR at this track. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Winning chance. HECTOR DARCY (2) is worth consideration.
