Addington Race 4

RED SNAPPER SEAFOOD SUMNER SPRINT PBD

Stake: $3,500

GOTCHA WINNIE (2) comes off a (17.06) win last time, scoring by 4.5 lengths in a Class 3 over 295m at this track. Has already won five times from this draw. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. LEONARDO JEWEL (4) produced a moderate run last time when fifth at Ascot Park over 390m behind Bubbles Tonight (23.30) in a Class 3/4. Was in the money the start prior. Slight drop in class today and likely to play a prominent role. YATRI BALE (5) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start. Should be at decent each-way value.

Scored by 4.5 lengths last time (17.06) in a Class 3 over 295m at this track. Yet to miss the frame from eight starts from the draw, including five wins. Has ability and is a key chance.

Missed the frame last time but the start prior clocked an excellent 17.09 over 295m finishing second at this track. Should prove hard to beat.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won comfortably by 4.5 lengths at this track (17.03) beating Money Bags in a Class 3 on September 11. Solid claims this line-up.
