The Meadows Pa Race 8 - Race 8 - 1609M

RIP TIDE (5) is the one to beat after three from three here over 1609m, latest winning at The Meadows on 6 May by 1.75L over DRY RIDGE ERIE (1). Dry Ridge Erie (1) draws inside and brings sharp recent figures, having won on 2 May then chased Rip Tide home for 2nd last time. LOS ALAMITOS (3) is a key chance off a dominant 7.5L all‑the‑way win on 6 May and prior 2nd over 1609m. UNDERCOVER SPEED (4) maps to get a soft run and was 3rd behind Dry Ridge Erie and THE REAL THING (2) on 2 May; The Real Thing (2) also has recent seconds at this track and can be in the finish if holding a spot early.
