Addington (G) Race 1

TRACED FROM BIRTH TO ADOPTION SPRINT PBD

Stake: $2,800

CLAWS IN EMPEROR (2) is a 17 start maiden who has placed five times, the latest finishing fourth at this track. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. HOMEBUSH KAIZA (6) filled a minor placing last start at Ascot Park behind Classy Hunter (22.99) in a Class 0. Led around the bend before fighting on well and going down to a handy type. Much improved run last start and can measure up. RIPSLINGER RIOT (5) is on debut and has a tricky draw to overcome. Did finish fourth in a six dog trial (17.53) on this track over 295m. Expected to play a major role. DIAMOND FERG (3) makes debut for the M M Grant kennel. Has had two trials, most recently won a six dog trial on this track over 295m. Profiles nicely and bound to carry market support.

Comments

Latest effort finished 4th over 295m at this track beaten 9 lengths (17.94) behind Ripslinger Lynx in a Class 0 on November 28. Was in the money three on end before missing the frame last time. Suited here and likely to run well.

Debutant by Feral Franky from Diamond Harmony. From the M M Grant kennel. Did win a recent trial (17.53) on this track over 295m. Profiles strongly and pay to watch the market closely.

Has finished fifth at his last couple of starts, most recently at Ascot Park over 390m. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Showed good improvement when second behind Classy Hunter at Ascot Park last start over 390m (22.99). Racing well enough to fully test this line-up.
