Addington Race 5

GARRARD'S HORSE & HOUND RESTRICTED AGE SPRINT FEATURE PBD

Stake: $7,900

LADY DAISY (8) goes very well at the course and distance with eight wins and a placing from 14 starts. Placed last time (17.23) at this track in a Class 5, finishing second and beaten one length. Looks suited here and rates on top. RIPSLINGER RORY (3) had a tough draw to overcome and was game in defeat when only 1.3 lengths from Homebush Khan in third (22.64) at Ascot Park. Deserves a win and gets her chance. GOTCHA HOMER (5) has a strong overall record having nine wins and 12 places from 30 starts but was out of the money last time when seventh (17.61) over 295m at this track. Goes well from this draw. Expected to feature on best form. HOMEBUSH HENRY (7) form at this distance reads well. Has each-way claims.

Goes well at this track and trip. At the last outing finished 6th in a Class 5 on July 10 over 295m at this track behind Opawa Evans beaten 10 lengths (17.52). Racing well and has to be included.

Nearing another win after her success on June 19 at this track over 295m. Last start was second over 295m in 17.23, behind Pick And Go. Has a strong record from box 8, including eight wins. Go close.
