Addington Race 4

STEVE ANNGOW DRAPES & BLINDS PH.0272719588 SPRINT FEATURE PBD

Prize Money: $6,227

HOMEBUSH SUNNY (7) produced a moderate run last time when sixth at Ascot Park over 457m behind Fairway Flyer (26.44) in a Class 5. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and three minor placings to his credit. Drops down in class today. Has ability and is a key runner. OPAWA OPIE (6) ran an outstanding 17.14 winning over 295m at this track last start. Top win latest and rates a key player again. PAW EARNEST (8) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by 0.7 lengths at this track in a handy 30.62 beating Opawa Victoria. Significant danger even though he is dropping back to the sprint journey. ADOBE EGO (4) placed two back in a Class 4 at this track then backed that up with a third (17.12) over 295m at this track last time.

Has been in the money the last two runs. Finished third at this track in 17.12 last time but the start prior clocked an excellent 17.08 over 295m finishing second at this track. Definite contender.

Won again in quick time after stalking the pace to make it back-to-back wins at this track over 295m (17.14). Looks suited and should go close.
