Addington Race 1

TONY MUSIC MEMORIAL DISTANCE FEATURE

Prize Money: $18,182

JOHNNY FOOTBALL (8) ran the fastest on the card last time scoring by 8 lengths (38.39) at Manawatu. Comes into this fresh but recently had a solo trial (26.23) at Manawatu over 457m. Looks to have an edge on most of these if fully fit. CLASSY HUNTER (3) is a strong stayer well performed over the longer races. Was in the money last time (38.41) over 660m at Manawatu in a Class 2/3 FIN. Goes very well at the trip finding the frame in each of five starts. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Must be included in calculations. PAW ZACHARY (7) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (26.47) in a Class 5 at Ascot Park. Solid record here winning five races. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Shapes as one to consider. LONG NON WHITE (6) placed last start in slick time and is in the mix again.

Latest effort finished 4th in a Class 5 on July 15 over 457m at Ascot Park behind Fairway Flyer beaten 5.5 lengths (26.47). Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.
