Addington (G) Race 11

RACING AGAIN MONDAY 30TH MARCH SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $3,000

BERNIE LOU (6) goes very well this course and distance starting six times for two wins and two minors. Below best last time at Ascot Park (23.23) in a Class 2, finishing a 9 length fourth. With a clean break looks hard to beat. RIPSLINGER NESTA (3) was prominent throughout when winning two back but could manage only midfield last time when 5th and beaten 5 lengths at this track (31.07). Consistent performer from this draw with a win and three minor placings to her credit. Better suited to the sprint trip and can measure up. DIAMOND LUIGI (5) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (17.73) last time in a Class 2 H at this track. A forward showing wouldn't surprise. HOMEBUSH TINK (2) is a last-start placegetter here at this trip - worth considering at decent each-way value.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th over 390m at Ascot Park beaten 9 lengths (23.23) behind Early Crow Evans in a Class 2 on March 18. Placed two back at this track. Was in the money two on end before missing the frame last time. Looks well placed and should feature.
