Addington Race 4

ROSE & THISTLE SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $2,909

HOMEBUSH ROMILLY (7) finds it hard to win but looks close to breaking through. Filled a minor placings again last time when second (23.07) at Ascot Park making it four placings in a row. Not the quickest into stride but does run home nicely. Good form should continue. IMPRESSIVE ELF (6) stuck on well last time to finish 2 lengths back in third (23.34) at Ascot Park in a Class 1 over 390m. Usually shows good box manners. Hard to beat again. KNOW DAISY (8) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, hitting the frame latest when 3rd at this track over 295m. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Expected to feature again. HOMEBUSH AYDAH (5) will give backers a sight at decent each-way value.

Has struggled to jump cleanly in recent outings and the results have been disappointing, the most recent effort a seventh over 295m at this track. Cannot enthuse on this occasion.
