Addington Extra Race 3

ROSE & THISTLE SPRINT PBD

Stake: $3,000

GOTCHA JASPER (3) has a strong record this track and trip with three wins and four placings from nine starts. Recorded a nose win (17.32) in a Class 1 last time at this track. With a clean break looks hard to beat. BOLT (8) is rarely out of the finish, recording 25 places from 46 starts. Has been in the minors the last two runs, the latest finishing third (17.39) at this track. Nicely placed to grab a well-deserved win. Gets his favourite draw to feature. OPAWA CHESTER (5) was a course and distance placegetter (17.38) last time also from the same draw, finishing a 4.5 lengths third in a Class 2. Worth another try. HOMEBUSH NALA (2) should be thereabouts despite an unplaced run here most recently. Should be at decent each-way value.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.72) in a Class 2 FIN, finishing a 9 length eighth. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from four starts. Can feature in the finish.

Strong performance after tracking the speed to win by a nose at this track over 295m (17.32) beating Hilton Hustler in Class 1 on August 29. Can make it back to back wins.

Finished second last start (23.46) over 390m at Ascot Park. Squeeze draw to overcome. Heading in the right direction and well placed to fill another top-three spot.

Latest effort finished 3rd on August 29 over 295m at this track behind Dream Ahead beaten 4.5 lengths (17.38) in a Class 2. Has run slick time here with a 17.3 PB at the distance. Looks hard to beat here.

Snuck into the minor money last time when a 0.7 lengths second at this track but did record a slick 17.19 over the 295m trip. Can't recommend her in this.
