The Meadows Pa Race 3 - Race 3 - 1609M

ATTA BOY ABE (2) is racing well with five top-five finishes in succession, the latest effort a second at this track over 1609m. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Finds a nice race and will take plenty of beating once more. THE REAL THING (1) finished fourth at this track two runs ago before a comparable effort at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 19 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Meets a comparable field and he can finish a lot closer this time. D A CAPTAIN MARVEL (5) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. HOME RUN KING (3) is the best of the rest after finishing fifth over 1609m at this track last time out.

Fair run when beaten by 6 m finishing fourth behind Dark Soul at this track over 1609m in a NW2EXTPM on January 23 at $6.70. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind I'm A Donkey at this track over 1609m in a NW2EXTPM on January 30 at $4.70. This race appears well within his grasp.

Solid performance when a close second behind Stonebridge Alien at this track over 1609m in a POPUPCGNW3 on January 24 at $8.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Don't B Blue at this track over 1609m in a POPUPFINAL on January 31 at $19.30. Capable of testing this line-up.
