Addington Race 5

THURSDAY PLACE PICK SPRINT FEATURE

Prize Money: $4,273

LADY POPPY (8) slotted in just off the lead from the wide draw last start and boxed on to finish second (17.36) at this track in a Class 2 FIN over 295m. Form is hard to fault from this box, with a win and two minor placings from three starts. Got beaten by a smart dog last start and can measure up this time. DIAMOND EMMA (5) turned in a plain run last time when seventh at this track over 295m behind Heart Beats Rico (17.68) in a Class 3. Comes through a solid form race last start. A big run wouldn't surprise. RIPSLINGER DELTA (2) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (17.59) at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Winning chance. PHOEBE JEWEL (6) must be included in main hopes on latest effort. Odds will be lucrative.

Was out of placings last time (31.90) at this track in a R/A H, finishing eighth and beaten 20 lengths. Goes very well from the draw boasting three victories and six places from 15 starts. Will need some luck to feature.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage sixth last time out over 295m at this track. Not far away last time but this is a stiff test.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.68) in a Class 3, finishing a 10 length seventh. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and three places from nine starts. Looks well placed and should feature.

Strong performance after racing just off the speed to win by 2.5 lengths at this track over 295m (17.29) beating Homebush Nepo in Class 2 on May 15. Looks a solid hope.
