Addington Race 6

FORESTQUIP MOBILE PACE

Prize Money: -

I'M ROCKIN (7) ran fourth last start at this track over 1980m, beaten 16 metres. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Has the class to take care of this field. QUEEN TYRON (2) produced a better effort last time out, finishing fourth over 1980m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. This doesn't look as hard so she is set to continue her upward trend. BETTOR BE SHARP (8) is in the mix following a respectable second at his most recent appearance over 2600m at this track. COMMANDER JOE (5) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when third at this track over 1980m.

Distance: 1980m
