Ascot Park Race 4

PAULA'S PIXIE DASH PBD

Prize Money: $4,000

MITCHAM MANDY (6) turned in a better effort at Addington last start, finishing second behind Armani Jewel (17.57) in a Class 1. Has the pace to be prominent. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minor placings. Must come into calculations. SWIPER THE FOX (8) was well backed last start but ran below expectations when fourth (17.71), beaten 5 lengths. Has won two of four starts from this draw. Key runner on best form. RIPSLINGER BIRDY (2) turned spotting a big start finishing sixth (18.00) last time in a Class 1 at Addington. The longer straight at this venue should be ideal and can do much better this time. HOMEBUSH KAIZA (7) went north last start but returns to a familiar track today. Cannot be ruled out.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th over 295m at Addington beaten 5 lengths (17.71) behind Homebush Husk in a Class 1 on July 20. Placed two back at this track. Rates highly on best form. More than capable and has to be included.
