Addington Race 1

TRACED FROM BIRTH TO ADOPTION SPRINT PBD

Stake: $3,800

OPAWA CHLOE (5) was out of placings last time (17.39) at this track in a Class 4, finishing seventh and beaten 4.5 lengths. Had been in stunning form prior to last start. Rates a leading player. STAR BOYS SHOUT (4) was a last start winner (16.97) from Box 3 at this track. Goes very well from this draw with three wins and two minor placings from six starts. One of the leading chances again. DONATELLO JEWEL (6) was never in contention last time at this track, but prior to that won by 1.75 lengths at this track (17.33) beating Hilton Cookie in a Class 3 on December 23. Does jump well from the boxes and is one of the better hopes. HILTON HUSTLER (3) is always a threat when he races at this journey. One to include in all multiple bets.

Hit the frame latest (17.06) when third at this track in a Class 4. Goes very well from the draw boasting 11 victories and 18 places from 47 starts. Has been thereabouts of late and is among the chances.

Snuck into the minor money last time when a 0.7 lengths second at this track but did record an excellent 17.13 over the 295m journey. Sure to be thereabouts again.

Impressive performance leading throughout to score by 3.5 lengths in a Class 3 last start at this track, recording a convincing 16.97 over the 295m journey. Hard to beat with even luck.

Going well prior to missing the frame last start when well-fancied, finishing seventh in 17.39 over 295m at this track. Well worth another chance.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.47) in a Class 4, finishing a 6 length seventh. Has four successes and six minors from 12 starts from box 6. Looks well placed and should feature.

Has finished fourth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 5.5 lengths behind Skeletor over 295m. Boasts a course and distance PB in a dazzling 16.82. Has ability and looks a winning hope.
