Meadowlands Race 3 - Race 3
PERFECT SKY (1) maps well from the pole and brings reliable Meadowlands 1609m form with three thirds this season, including 3rd here on 23 May when holding position throughout. MATANZAS CREEK (7) is a key chance off two recent Harrah’s Philadelphia wins in April and wasn’t far away two runs back at The Meadows. LASTDRIVEDOWNMAIN (6) has competitive Meadowlands figures from November, including a narrow 2nd and a 3rd over 1609m, and was a solid 4th at Harrah’s last week. GANDHI (3) mixes form but led and held 3rd at Harrah’s on 15 May and has an April win there, which brings him into the conversation.

Has been around the mark only modestly, finishing 6th of 6 at Saratoga Harness over 1609m on 24 May, beaten 16.5L on SY, after settling last. Prior runs at Yonkers were 7th of 8 on 19 May (1609m, beaten 17L at $34) and 7th of 7 on 12 May (beaten 24.75L), always rearward. Draws barrier 2 here with Tim Tetrick up for Ricky Bucci, six days between runs. Needs sharp improvement but has place claims with a kinder trip.
