Addington (G) Race 2

THE BRICKWORKS BAR SPRINT HEAT 1 PBD

Prize Money: $2,818

CLAWS IN EMPEROR (3) stalked the lead from a middle draw and boxed on well to finish half a length back in second (27.09) at Ascot Park in a Class 0 over 457m. Long time maiden but has been improving in recent runs. Sure to be about the mark. ARMANI JEWEL (8) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, finishing in the money last time when 2nd at this track over 295m. Solid formlines coming through her last run. Must be included in calculations. BOBBY THE FOX (4) has missed the placings at his last couple but was in the money three back when third (17.60) at this track in a Class 0. Has the ability and can find best this time. HOMEBUSH LOPEZ (6) placed last time and wasn't beaten far - worth considering in a field lacking much depth.
