Ascot Park Race 8

GREYHOUNDS MAKE GREAT PETS PBD

Prize Money: $4,091

SIDELINE SASHA (4) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, rewarded with a win last time at this track over 390m. Can make it two on the bounce. GOTCHA SUNNY (2) is rarely far away but tends to find one better, placing 28 from 51 starts. Better run when finding the frame last time though, finishing third (22.99) at this track. Must be included in calculations. HOMEBUSH HARRY (8) hit the frame last time at this track but just a few starts ago ran blistering time when scoring over 295m at Addington in 17.05. Top win three back and can measure up again from an ideal draw. FOXY THOMAS (3) will need to repeat last run to feature but is capable of doing so.

Hit the frame latest (22.99) when third at this track in a Class 2. Goes very well from the draw boasting four victories and eight places from 16 starts. Heading the right way looks well placed to salute.

Came from wide draw and finished last in a Class 2 H on May 22 over 295m at Addington behind Marjie's Magic beaten 9 lengths (17.91). On best form is more than capable. Right in the mix again.

In the money last time at this track (22.86) in a Class 2, finishing a head second. Has eight wins and 14 placings from 43 starts from the draw. Better effort last time and is a great chance to score.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 390m at this track. Needs to find a bit more.
