Hatrick Race 12

BALDRICKS CUNNING PLAN C3 305M FEATURE PBD

Prize Money: $5,000

EARLY CROW EVANS (5) trailed the lead and fought on well to be beaten 4.5 lengths into second (17.03) at Addington in a Class 3 over 295m. Won at his only start from this draw. Makes plenty of appeal despite having first look at this venue. HANOI (6) is a talented type who notched her 7th career success when too good (17.54) at this track last time. Solid record here at this trip including four wins. Winner at her latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. One of the leading chances again. LEONARDO JEWEL (4) got a clear run and led until the final stages when second and beaten 2.75 lengths (21.46) at Cambridge Raceway in a Class 3 over 375m. Can feature again. MERCEDES JEWEL (2) finished in the placings last start and deserves some thought. Odds will be appealing.

Hit the frame at Addington last time when a 3.5 lengths second but did record a slick 17.23 over the 295m trip. Makes appeal on best.

Was among the placegetters latest at Addington when a 4.5 lengths second but did clock a dynamic 17.03 over the 295m journey. Go close again.
