Addington Race 9

BUY A WOODLANDS STAR 16 FEB 2026 MOBILE PACE

Prize Money: -

CANDY CANE (6) didn't have a lot of room to work with from a back row draw last week but recorded a good third at this venue the outing prior. With better fortune she is good enough to take out a race like this. I'M ROCKIN (7) got it wrong last start but there was plenty of merit in the previous effort when third at Waterlea. With his A-game he has the ability to find the winners' list. CAPTAIN KOBE (8) cops a wide draw but looks close to a win after two successive placings, the latest a third at this venue. With even luck he could break through. CLONAKILTY (4) won at Gore the last time he started on the front line so must be respected.
