The Meadows Race 3 - City View Bistro
REV GORDON (8) finds it hard to break through. Finished in the minors latest when second (30.18) at this track and may be close to breaking through. Top prospect. SAINT BERNARDO (4) is progressing well with another good run, placing by 4 lengths (30.23) in a Grade 7 at this track. Won at his only start from this draw. Will give a great sight again. LITTLE RAT (1) failed to feature last start after missing the jump at this track, but prior to that won by 0.7 lengths at this track (30.43) beating Surge in a Mix 6/7 H on September 9. Should play a prominent role. FIRE RATED (5) is going well, finishing in the placings twice in a row. Not beaten far last time when a one length second (29.72) in a Grade 7 at Sandown.

Found the going tougher last start when third over 525m at this track. That followed a win two back in 22.42 beating Long Hauler over 390m at Warrnambool. Needs further improvement to feature.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage sixth last time out over 450m at Ballarat. Prepared to just watch this time.

Placed last time (30.18) at this track in a Mix 6/7, finishing second and beaten 1.5 lengths. Yet to win but has placed three times from this draw. Makes strong appeal.
