The Meadows Pa Race 5 - Race 5 - 1609m
CRUNCH CLASS (2) Narrowly denied a win last start at the track. Capable of a strong comeback. Has plenty of early speed. Driver Dave Palone is a bonus. Major hope. VENOM HANOVER (3) Didn't threaten when 9th last run here. Capable of a strong comeback. Aaron Merriman takes the reins today. Should come to hand quickly. Big chance. TOUCHBACK (1) Threw down a serious challenge last run around here and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Should get going late. Has to be included. PEPE LOU PEW (5) Came in 8th last run at Pocono Downs. Solid place bet prospects.

Resuming after a spell. Finished 6th last start at this track. Has a great burst of speed late. A threat to the other main hopes.
