Addington Extra Race 5

$159.2M CONTRIBUTED TO THE ECONOMY PBD

Prize Money: $4,545

GOTCHA JET (3) shapes as hard to beat after winning last start over the 295m at this track in a fast 17.15. Smart win latest and looks a key chance again here. CLASSY NOA (8) was a course and distance placegetter (17.17) last time also from the same draw, finishing a 4.5 lengths third in a Class 3/4. Bold showing expected again. OPAWA GORDON (2) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (17.37) last time in a Class 5 at this track. Down grades in class for this race. Has the ability to give this a shake. SLEEPLESS MAY (7) has ability and can find the frame.

Missed the frame latest (17.37) when fifth over 295m at this track in a Class 5. Has five successes and nine minors from 26 starts from box 2. Makes strong appeal.

Was out of placings last time (17.31) at this track in a Class 4, finishing fourth and beaten 6 lengths. Has two wins and three placings from 10 starts from the draw. Must respect.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a sixth over 295m at this track. Can't make much of a case this time.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 295m. Last start finished last in a Class 4 on April 23 over 295m at this track behind Busted Handle beaten 8 lengths (17.70). Capable of much better. Right in the mix again.

Hit the frame latest (17.17) when third at this track in a Class 3/4. Yet to score but has placed each of three runs from this draw. Looks all set to find the winners' list.
