Addington Race 2

ROSE & THISTLE SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $2,909

HOMEBUSH ROB (3) boxed on well to finish second last time, beaten 1.3 lengths (17.78) behind Selena Jewel at this track. Comes through a solid form race last start. Makes plenty of appeal. CLASSY BLAZER (5) stalked the lead and fought on well to finish 2 lengths away in second (17.77) at this track in a Class 1 over 295m. Leading chance with even luck from the squeeze box. ELITE OREO (4) hit the ground running from a squeeze draw and prominent early but run ended and faded to finish 6th at this track in Class 1 company. One of the better chances. HOPES ARE HIGH (6) cannot be underestimated. Has been beaten by two very smart dogs in both recent runs.

Hit the frame latest (17.78) when second at this track in a Class 1. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minors. Well placed here and gets chance to atone.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fourth last time out over 390m at Ascot Park. Better off looking to others.
