Addington Race 3

ROSE & THISTLE SPRINT FEATURE PBD

Prize Money: $3,182

FERRARI JEWEL (2) has some solid form under her belt and proved too strong last time to win by 2.75 lengths at this track in a handy 17.09 beating Ava Effort. Has performed well from this box with a win and four minor placings to her name from seven starts. The hardest to beat again. WAVE DANCER (4) was in the money two back in a Class 4 at this track then jumped from a squeeze draw last time and was not far away when second (17.19) over 295m at this track. Can improve sharply here. HILTON HARDCASE (7) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (17.31) at this track. Has won two of three starts from this draw. Bold showing expected. OPAWA SNOWDROP (8) can fill a top-four spot at a big price.

Strong performance showing plenty of speed to score by 2.75 lengths in a Class 3 last start at this track, recording a dominant 17.09 over the 295m journey. Looks a key chance.

Had been in consistent form with three minors on end before missing the frame last start when sixth (17.59) at this track. Happy enough to avoid.

Has hit the frame the last couple. Finished second at this track latest but prior to that recorded a decent 17.21 over 295m finishing second at this track. Hard to beat with even luck.

Has finished fourth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 4.5 lengths behind Trixie Jewel over 295m. Would be better placed in something easier.
