The Meadows Race 8 - Hector Fawley At Stud
FRACTIONS (6) tends to drift back and work into the race, finishing out of the placings two back before charging home into the minors latest when third (29.80) in a Special conditions H at Sandown last time. Has never been out of the money in three starts this course and distance. Can measure up this time. REPEAT THE SAME (3) had a tricky draw last time and although midfield in fourth wasn't far away finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner (30.53). Should be about the money. SMELLY HALLE (1) boasts a consistent overall record including nine wins from 38 starts, but missed the frame latest when seventh (30.05) over 515m at Sandown. Goes well from this draw. Looks suited and expected to run well. MAGIC LOKI (4) is right in the mix.

Inside draw could be an advantage. Last start finished seventh over 515m at Sandown, beaten 8 lengths (30.05) behind Little Monkey in a Special conditions H on November 5. Should show more than the latest offering. Has claims.

Missed the frame latest (30.53) when fourth over 525m at this track in a Grade 5 H. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minors. Key chance and should go close.

Returns from a break and was a winner at only other try fresh, which was at first career start scoring at this track over 525m. Looks a definite winning chance here.

Facing tougher opposition than he has faced recent starts and current form just not to what is required to figure. Hard to have. Others look better.
