Ascot Park Race 11

COUCH FRIEND FOR LIFE PBD

Prize Money: $4,000

TEMPO TABLET (2) was strongly supported last start when a short priced favourite and duly saluted winning by 7 lengths at Addington in a handy 17.12. Draws to advantage and has the ability and in winning form. Ran the fastest time on the program in his latest win. Expected to measure up again. DETECTIVE DEREK (5) ran below best last time finishing seventh (18.18) over 295m at Addington in a Class 1. Will give the top chances plenty to think about. HOMEBUSH ANNIE (4) was responsible for a modest effort most recently when sixth at Addington over 295m behind Dribbles Card (18.11) in a Class 1. Placed at her previous run. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. HOMEBUSH ZURI (7) can measure up with the right run. Odds will be appealing.

Having his first start over this trip. Last start scored at Addington over 295m in (17.12). With even luck and a clean start he should be very hard to beat.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (23.49) over 390m at this track. Wide draw here. Not up to this.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 457m at this track. Other runners look much more appealing.
