The Meadows Race 3 - Home Of The Phoenix
MISS JECKELL (4) doesn't have the best strike-rate. Finished in the minors latest when second (31.22) at Ballarat and may be close to breaking through. Makes plenty of appeal. SALT SPECKLE (2) showed blistering pace early and gave a sight when in the minors, beaten one length over 500m Bendigo in 28.38. Leading player again. FRANKY'S OUTLAW (1) hit the ground running from out wide with a fast early sectional but run over late and missed the frame when a 2.75 lengths fifth (28.49) over 500m at Bendigo. Has a strong record out of this box with three wins and a minor placing from five starts. A big run wouldn't surprise. MORAINE PIPER (8) has top-three aspirations after placing at big odds last time.

Was sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 2.75 lengths fifth (28.49) over 500m at Bendigo. Well placed and among the chances here.

Ran a better race when second behind Rocky Superstar at Ballarat last start over 545m (31.22). Has to be respected.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won by a neck at Shepparton (25.95) beating Mighty Eagle in a Restricted WIN on July 27. Likely to find this a bit tough.

Showed good improvement when second behind Heathcote Rupee at Bendigo last start over 500m (28.39). Gets back so might need a bit of luck.
