Ascot Park Race 4

SOUTHLAND OTAGO PHOTO FINISH PBD

Prize Money: $2,909

EARLY CROW EVANS (3) is a consistent runner who is new to this track. Was an all the way winner latest, running away with a 3.5 lengths win at Addington (16.99). Has won two of two starts from this draw. Remains in the same class and will be the hardest to beat again. RED WINE ROME (4) bolted home by 8 lengths (16.98) at Addington last time from box 3. Has a tricky draw to overcome and will need a clean break. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Steps out of maidens today but expecting another bold showing. KYLIE BAXTER (8) scored well last start at big odds by half a length at Addington in a handy 17.23 beating Opawa Crackers. Outside box to overcome but has the ability and in winning form. Leading chance again. ELITE OREO (2) mapped to get a nice run in transit and can fill a top-three spot. Something for the Multiples: HOMEBUSH VENOM (6)

Solid performance to win by half a length at Addington over 295m (17.23) beating Opawa Crackers in Class 1 on February 23. Looks well placed and should be tough to beat.

Last start finished sixth over 390m at this track, beaten 9 lengths (23.55) behind Homebush Pauline in a Class 1 on February 18. Not going well enough. This will test.
