Addington Race 2

GARRARD'S HORSE & HOUND DASH PBD

Stake: $4,400

OPAWA RYDER (8) boasts a strong record this journey here with 25 wins and 19 minors from 70 tries. Recorded a 1.75 lengths win (16.95) in a Class 5 last time at this track. Rates a leading player. BOLDLY GO (7) was a last-start winner (16.80) from Box 2 at this track. Hard to knock his form from this box, unbeaten in two starts. Has definite claims. MITCHAM BLAKE (3) was in the minors two back (17.07) at this track but ran below best last time there, finishing 6th. In the mix. HOMEBUSH ALANA (6) generally performs well here at this distance. Each way value.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.20) in a Class 5, finishing a 6 length fourth. Goes very well from the draw boasting nine victories and seven places from 28 starts. Looks one of the chances.

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 6 length third but did record a swift 17.28 over the 295m journey. Can sneak a place again.
