Addington (G) Race 11

RACING AGAIN THURSDAY 11 DEC SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $2,727

OPAWA BAXTER (5) was strongly fancied latest and proved too good with a 8 length win at this track in a handy 16.97. Jumping from the pinch draw but has a good record over this journey. Has a very good strike-rate from this draw, with four wins from six starts. Can continue on his winning ways. MR. CHIPPEWA (7) comes off an average performance last start when fifth at this track over 295m behind Opawa Opie (17.35) in a Class 2. Comes through a solid form race last start. Is a reliably quick beginner from the boxes and shapes as one to consider. GOTCHA CHESTER (8) comes off an average run last start when sixth at this track over 295m behind Traveller Dora (17.69) in a Class 2. Comes through a solid form race last start. Worth another chance. HOMEBUSH NEPO (2) finished in the placings last start and deserves some thought. Should be at decent each-way value.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a seventh over 295m at this track. Safely held last time and looking to others.
