The Meadows Pa Race 3 - Race 3 - 1609M

DARK SOUL (1) continued a solid run of recent form when he finished third at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten by 13 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Big chance based on those recent efforts. HAPPY HOUR BLUES (4) turned in an out-of-character effort most recently when 14 metres away in sixth over 1609m at Northfield Park. Form prior to that had been solid. Meets a comparable field and he is capable of a much better performance. D A CAPTAIN MARVEL (5) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when fourth at this track over 1609m. Must be included. WINDY KNIGHT (2) could only finish ninth over 1609m at this track most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix.
