Addington Race 2

DAVE ROBBIE PHOTOGRAPHER DASH PBD

Prize Money: $4,273

ONE UP (5) ran below his best last time finishing fifth (17.23) over 295m at this track in a Class 5. Form here sound including eight wins. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Rose through the grades fast but can bounce back. DIAMOND RANGER (6) was game in defeat when finished in the minors last start over the 295m at this track, running a good 17.06 in a Class 5 FIN. Took a champion dog to beat him last start. Fast run latest and rates a key player again. CLAWS IN BRICK (3) impressed last time when posting a slick 16.86 win here in a new PB this course and distance. Began very quickly last start and expected to feature again. GOTCHA WINNIE (2) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently. Not the quickest into stride but does run home powerfully.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.40) in a Class 5, finishing a 6 length fourth. Goes very well off the draw boasting seven wins and three places from 14 starts. Can measure up on best.

Good effort to score just six days ago over 295m at this track by a neck in a Class 5. Ran the fastest time on the program in that last win. Key chance.
