Addington Race 10

ROSE & THISTLE SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $2,636

DREAM AHEAD (8) jumps from box 8 again after placing (23.41) last time at Ascot Park over 390m. Looks the one to beat on best. IMPRESSIVE NIXON (3) turned in a better effort at this track last start, finishing third behind Diamond Alice (17.70) in a Class 1. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Should be at peak fitness now. Hard to beat again. HOMEBUSH VENOM (5) has mixed form recently, finishing fifth (24.27) in a Class 1 at Ascot Park latest but did run well two back when in the frame. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. HILTON CURRY (7) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start. One to add value to all exotic bets.

Missed the frame latest (24.27) when fifth over 390m at Ascot Park in a Class 1. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Looks suited and should go close.
