The Meadows Race 2 - Home Of The Phoenix

AZZURRO (4) has a strong record here with two wins and a minor from five starts. Hit the frame latest (29.77) when second at this track in a Mix 6/7. Rates a leading player. STAR NOTE (7) looks close to another win after hitting the frame in a 8 length third (30.23) in a Mix 6/7 at Sandown. Leading chance. RICH GAIRN (2) continues to race in super honest form hitting the frame at all three career runs, winning two back before finishing second last time (30.70) over 525m at this track. Has a good overall strike-rate and can find the frame here. CRUISE COMMANDER (1) can run a bold race on best form.

Was in the placings last time but prior to that was a dominant winner after leading throughout, scoring by 6 lengths in a Restricted WIN at this track and recording a sharp 30.03 over the 525m journey. Hard to top on the time from two back.

Found the going tougher last start when second over 515m at Sandown. That followed a win two back in 29.94 beating Greyscale over 515m at Sandown. Would be better placed in something easier.
