Addington (G) Race 9

ACCELL THERAPY NZ SPRINT PBD

Stake: $2,600

HOMEBUSH POSTIE (4) was in the placings last time but shapes well for this on his quick win the start prior, getting around this track over 295m in 17.30. Can return to winning form here if runs up to time two back. BOLT (8) could manage only third but ran slick time (17.29) at this track over 295m. Bold showing expected again. EPIC CHARM (3) was last seen getting around 295m at this track in a respectable 17.28 for a 0.7 lengths success. Harder here but expected to measure up. HOMEBUSH BLUEY (2) has strong claims after a top-three finish at this track and distance last time out.

In the money last time at Ascot Park (23.21) in a Class 2, finishing a 2.25 lengths third. Goes very well from the draw boasting one victory and two places from four starts. Looks a leading chance.

Missed the frame last start when a 8 length sixth (23.37) at Ascot Park. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Has ability but will need everything to go right.

Hit the frame latest (17.29) when third at this track in a Class 2 H. Goes very well from the draw boasting four victories and nine places from 22 starts. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.
