The Meadows Pa Race 8 - Race 8 - 1609m
BUCKEYE BARON (1) Finished 7th last run at Northfield Park but has minimal work to do from the draw. Aaron Merriman is a suitable booking. Serious contender. SECRET TRADER (3) Just missed last run here and getting better in recent performances. Likely to be well placed early. Driver Dave Palone rates highly. Key player. KANYE CATCHME (4) Tailed off to finish 5th last run at Northfield Park. Giving another chance here. Worth a ticket. RT TORERO (8) Close to claiming the win last run around here. Modest chance for multis.

Threw down a serious challenge last run at this track and showing improvement in recent outings. Should muster plenty of early toe. Should go well.

At $4.00 faded away to finish 9th last start here. Should race on the speed. Overlook from a betting angle.
