Addington Extra Race 4

RACING AGAIN THURSDAY 17TH APRIL SPRINT PBD

Stake: $2,600

GOTCHA HIDE (2) goes very well this trip starting 11 times for four wins and three minors. In the money last time at this track (17.58) in a Class 2, finishing a 7 length third. Looks the one to beat with even luck. OPAWA HIPPY (7) was below best at his last start when 8th at this track following a second place finish (16.98) there two back. Form here at the trip sound including three wins. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings four times from five starts. A forward showing wouldn't surprise. HOMEBUSH CHLOE (3) shapes well after a sharp run last time, finishing second in a Class 2 at this track in 17.28. This tougher but expected to be in the finish. GO FLYER (8) gets a chance to redeem an unplaced effort here last start.

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 3.5 lengths second but did record a fast 17.28 over the 295m trip. Looks the one to beat with a repeat of that effort.
