Ascot Park Race 3

Southland & Otago Photo Finish Pbd

Prize Money: $2,272

MITCHAM JULIAN (6) ran below his best last time finishing fifth (17.55) over 295m at Addington in a Class 0 FIN. Has claims if he runs up to expectations. HOMEBUSH HARRY (8) found some support last start but struggled into fifth (23.35), beaten 5 lengths. Finished second the start before. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. HOMEBUSH MILO (2) was sent out big odds last time but scored an upset win in Class 1 at this track (22.99). Has hit winning form and can go on with it. IMPRESSIVE ELF (1) has the perfect inside box-draw and with some luck can improve on an unplaced run last time here.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when second (22.89) at big odds over 390m at this track. Has the inside draw but prefer each-way.

Strong performance to win by 2.25 lengths at this track over 390m (22.99) beating Nighthawk Zeus in Class 1 on December 10. Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 5th on December 10 over 390m at this track behind Homebush Milo beaten 5 lengths (23.35) in a Class 1. Placed two back at this track. Well-performed from this draw. Key chance on best form.
