The Meadows Race 6 - Home Of The Phoenix

ELITE ONE (8) is better than last start when fifth (42.79) from Box 5 at Sandown over 715m. The form out of his last race has been franked. Has winning claims on his best figures. DERRY (1) turned in another strong performance after leading to make it two on the bounce, scoring by 5.5 lengths (41.81) at Sandown over 715m. Should be in this for a long way. UNIQUE STAR (2) is having his first try over the longer journey. Goes well from this draw, including a win. Among the main chances. IN BLOOM (3) has strong claims after a top-three finish when at the top of markets last time out.
