The Meadows Race 7 - We Stand With Tasmania
CANYA EXCITE ME (5) has a strong winning strike-rate this journey having won four of seven starts. Scored by 0.8 lengths last time (29.36) in a Grade 4/5 over 515m at Sandown. Has the ability and should feature. CORBAN YAXLEY (1) made light work of the tricky draw with a fast early sectional but gathered in and had to settle for the minors, finishing second (29.85) at Sandown over 515m. Won at his only start from this draw. Can feature again. LIKE A ROCK (4) is generally an honest type in the frame at three of 16 starts but missed the placings last time when fourth (29.70) over 515m at Sandown. Solid record at the distance winning five races. Expected to feature on best form. VALENZUELA (7) returns here as an each-way chance.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 4 length second (29.85) over 515m at Sandown. Key chance on best form.

Could manage only fifth last time but caught the eye the start prior when he recorded a dominant 30.98 over 545m finishing second at Ballarat. Rates a chance if runs up to recent fast time.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Sandown over 515m. Last start finished last over 515m at Sandown beaten 7 lengths (29.70) behind Retaliation in a Special conditions H on August 6. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.

Hasn't produced too much recently, and faces tougher opposition here. Has failed to show enough to come into contention here.

Good effort last time when second (29.87) over 525m at this track. Jumps from a wide draw. One of the better hopes.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when second (30.25) over 525m at this track. Has a wide draw to navigate and will need to find best.
