The Meadows Race 9 - Sportsbet Ht1
FLASH OF GENIUS (4) could manage only second but ran speedy time (30.09) at this track over 525m. Should be in this for a long way. DIVINE FEELINGS (6) was a last-start winner from box one at Sandown over 515m (29.75), scoring by 5 lengths. Expecting another good run. TRENDY TOMMY (2) finished well back at this track last time when a 6 length sixth (30.45) but recorded best time of the card when winning three back. Leading chance. ELIJAH ROSE (8) can sneak into the finish.

Racing well without winning, filling the minors at his last three starts, the latest when second (29.59) at Sandown. Draws the cherry this time. Others preferred.

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 1.1 lengths second but did record a slick 30.09 over the 525m trip. Looks the one to beat with a repeat of that effort.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at Sandown over 515m in 29.75 last start, beating Paw Xerox. Looks well placed and should be tough to beat.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when third (26.43) over 460m at Warragul. Drawn out wide but is among the better hopes.
