Addington Race 5

ROSE & THISTLE SPRINT PBD

Stake: $3,200

GO SWEDE (4) was well fancied last time on the strength of a win two back but could only manage fourth (17.53) at this track. Not always quick to jump but has good mid-race speed. Has winning claims on his best figures. VILI VROOM VROOM (7) is a promising type who notched his 4th career success when too good (17.06) at this track last time. Form at this distance is sound. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. Hard to fault his form and he makes plenty of appeal. OPAWA SNOWDROP (6) ran a respectable 17.22 when placed over 295m at this track last start in a Class 3. Rates a leading chance if runs up to latest. DONATELLO JEWEL (5) can fill a top-three spot despite a tricky box draw.

Showed good improvement when third behind Hilton Hardcase at this track last start over 295m (17.70). Cannot be overlooked based on that sound recent effort.

Talented type with an excellent strike rate at this journey. Has been prominent in the run and duly saluted at his last couple, most recently over 295m at this track in a handy 17.06 beating Angie's Kiwi Boy. Top chance to chalk-up the hat-trick.
