The Meadows Race 2 - Happy Birthday James
GOING NUCLEAR (2) comes off a (30.52) win last time, scoring by 2.75 lengths in a Grade 5 over 525m at this track. Has two wins already from this draw. Appeals as a leading chance in this. AMRON DANCER (4) has a strong record here with two wins and a minor from six starts. Comes off a (30.08) win last time, scoring by one length in a Free For All over 525m at this track. Looks a key chance on best figures. OPAWA POSTMAN (8) stalked lead from an outside box last start before finishing second (25.75) at Geelong in a Grade 4/5 over 460m. Must be included in calculations. GOBLIN (1) is always hard to beat when drawn in this box.

Could only manage sixth last time but the start prior hit the frame when third (30.70) over 525m at this track. Has a decent record when drawn the inside and can measure up.

Surprised two starts back at this track to win by 4.5 lengths in 30.20, beating Full Bore Bobby. Last start finished 6th over 525m at this track beaten 6 lengths (30.80) behind Paw Nilbert in a Grade 5 on October 24. Is a danger.

Caught the eye with a fast early split and setting up a one length win at this track over 525m in 30.08. Should be prominent.

Was out of the placings last time at this track but prior to that had been racing consistently, notching five minors in a row. Tough draw to overcome and appears tested on latest effort.

In the money last time at this track (30.82) in a Grade 5, finishing a 4.5 lengths third. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Tough field and looking to others this time.

Got back last start and could only manage third but before that won easily by 4 lengths at this track (34.84) beating High Five Indi in a Grade 5 on October 17. Prepared to risk this time.

Was among the placegetters latest at Geelong when a 1.4 lengths second but did clock an excellent 25.75 for the 460m trip. Can measure up with a repeat of that effort.
