The Meadows Race 5 - Sportsbet Final (1-6 Wins)
MEPUNGA PHANTOM (2) is a strong stayer well performed over the longer races. Was in the money last time (34.63) over 600m at this track in a Restricted WIN H. Has never missed the frame at the trip from four starts. Makes plenty of appeal. LADY RAPID (1) has mixed form a little and missed the frame the last two but was a Restricted WIN H winner three back (34.57) at Sandown over 595m. Can turn it around this time. REGAL SPENCER (7) has ability and finds the right scenario to bounce back.

Was out of placings last time (34.91) at this track in a Restricted WIN H, finishing fourth and beaten 4.5 lengths. Yet to win but has placed three times from this draw. Looks well placed and should feature.

Good effort last time when third (34.71) over 600m at this track. Awkward draw to overcome. Will need plenty of luck.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when second (29.57) at big odds over 515m at Sandown. Drawn out wide and will need to find best.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fourth last time out over 660m at Ballarat. Not likely to feature on this occasion.
