Addington Race 9

The City Of Sails Restricted Age Sprint Pbd

Prize Money: $2,636

DIAMOND RANGER (6) could manage only a 4.5 lengths fourth last start over 295m at this track but in a speedy 17.06. Top run latest and looms as the one to beat. OPAWA GORDON (1) goes very well this course and distance starting 15 times for six wins and seven minors. Hit the frame latest (16.98) when second at this track in a Class 4. Can feature with the right run. GOLDSTAR DUFFY (5) shapes well for this after finishing second last start over 295m at this track but in a lightning 16.91 behind Homebush Alana. A bold showing is expected again. GOLDSTAR MURPHY (7) was in the money last time at this track (16.92) in Class 5, finishing 2.25 lengths third. Has four wins already from this draw.

Could only manage sixth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when third (16.90) over 295m at this track. Aided by a low draw but looks safely held.

Has been in the money the last two runs. Finished second at this track in 16.91 last time but the start prior recorded a lightning 16.91 over 295m when edged out, at this track. Rates a top chance if runs up to time two back.
