Prairie Meadows Race 6 - 1m Hcap
INDEPENDENCE RISE (4) First run back after a spell. Set the pace to win by just short of 9L last time at Turf Paradise and promising career start. Racing against tougher rivals. Won't be far away. HOW ABOUT BOB (6) Rounded them up to win last run here and going back up in trip. Ronnie Huckaby and Patrick E Swan demand respect when they team up. Could pose a threat and looks promising. J J GREY (2) Was rock solid when winning by 5L last start at Oaklawn Park and drawn nicely. Jockey Glenn W Corbett and trainer Kenneth G Mcpeek are an imposing duo. Worth a ticket. CANNED HEAT (5) Good performance to run into 2nd beaten by 1/2L last start at the track and racing over extra ground. In fine form this campaign but facing formidable opponents. Include in chances.

Ran on into 5th last time at Legacy Downs and will appreciate a good alley. Likely to be well placed early. Up against a higher level of opposition. Not interested today.

Dominant winner by 5L last start at Oaklawn Park and can find a nice position from the draw. Challenged by a tougher grade. Could feature prominently.

Racing fresh today after a break. Started $12.00 and mediocre performance when 7th last run at Sunland Park. Seems very unlikely.

Back from a break. Was much too speedy in front to win by a margin of almost 9L last time at Turf Paradise and showing consistent performance in races. Good winning chance.

Ran on when 2nd beaten by 1/2L last start here and going up in trip. In fine form since coming back from a break but facing stiffer opposition. Represents significant value.

Dashed home to win last run around here and coming back up in distance. Ronnie Huckaby and Patrick E Swan have a good working relationship. Competing in a higher grade. Gets a chance against these.
