Addington (G) Race 9

THANK YOU TO THE LATE GEOFF MCKENZIE SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $4,545

BELLWOOD (8) below best last time at this track (17.22) in a Class 5, finishing a 6 length fifth. Raced in the top class last start and meets a much easier field today. Makes strong appeal on best. STAR BOYS SHOUT (2) ran an outstanding 17.10 when winning over 295m at this track last start. Top win latest and rates a key player again. PAW XIAN (5) has a strong overall record having 13 wins and 22 places from 52 starts but was out of the money last time when sixth (17.36) over 295m at this track. Form at the trip sound including seven wins. Down grades in class and is expected to feature on best form. SUN STRIKE (6) is worth another chance despite missing the top-three here most recently.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 295m in 17.10 last start, beating Curly Junior. Has run hot time here with a 16.86 PB at the distance. Hard to go past again.

Surprised two starts back at this track to win by a head in 17.38, beating Tempo Tablet. Last start finished 5th in a Class 4 on July 2 over 295m at this track behind Opawa Baxter beaten 5.5 lengths (17.40). May well be worth another chance.
