The Meadows Pa Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609m
FISCAL HANOVER (7) Couldn't maintain the pace when 4th last run around here. Expecting improvement here. Dave Palone is a plus. Has the ability to figure. KARMA'S IN RANGE (5) Rocketed home when winning last start around here. Will be motoring home late. Has the ability to take this out. LINE OF CREDIT (1) Narrowly beaten last run at this venue and drawn the rails. Aaron Merriman is highly regarded. Has to be included. FAITHFUL HANOVER (8) Right up there last time at this venue. Will be trying to topple them late. Must respect in this event.

Zipped home into 3rd beaten by 6.25m last time at the track. Very competitive this preparation. Sound chance.

Started $6.00 and came in 5th last start here. Won't be far away during the run. Would be more keen on the chance of others.

Was $17.00 and came in 7th last start around here but was a debutant last start. Hard to take.

Odds of $18.00 and faded away to finish 4th last run here. Expecting improvement here. Dave Palone rates highly aboard. Can win this.

Just short of the win last time around here. Finishes off strongly. Price in this race is tempting to get involved.
