Addington Race 9

AMBER CLEANING SERVICES SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $2,909

RIPSLINGER BIRDY (3) has mixed form recently, finishing fifth (18.35) in a Class 1 at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Better than last run and makes appeal this time. MITCHAM BLUE (4) turned in a moderate effort last time when fifth at Ascot Park over 390m behind Homebush Pauline (23.48) in a Class 1. Was in the money the start prior. Should be in this for a long way. KYLIE BAXTER (7) had been in super honest form hitting the frame three times on end before finishing fourth (23.41) at Ascot Park last time. Should be about the money. OPAWA CRACKERS (5) has ability and finds the right scenario to bounce back.

Missed the frame latest (18.35) when fifth over 295m at this track in a Class 1. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Expected to be in the finish.

Well fancied last start but could only manage fifth over 390m at Ascot Park in 23.48. Had been going well prior to that. Well placed here and looks a leading contender.

At the last outing finished 5th over 295m at this track beaten 9 lengths (18.26) behind Ripslinger Nesta in a Class 1 on February 16. Look for improvement. Well placed and among the chances here.

Going well prior to missing the frame last start when well-fancied, finishing fourth in 23.41 over 390m at Ascot Park. Suited here and likely to run well.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won by 1.3 lengths at this track (17.44) beating Foxy Thomas in a Class 0 on February 6. Forget the latest effort. Great chance to atone.
