Addington Race 1

GLENN McNABB EARTHMOVING & ENGINEERING TROT

Stake: $12,500

ALDEBARAN REDWOOD (3) gave a good account at his latest appearance over 2000m at Oamaru, beaten just 0.8 metres into fourth. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field and he is capable of another strong performance. MACHO MAN (6) has been in the placings three times from as many appearances this campaign. Registered yet another strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 2600m at Rangiora, adding to a string of recent minor placings. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. MISS MADDIE MAXIE (11) ended last prep with a fifth at Oamaru over 2000m four months ago. Capable of a forward showing while fresh. NOBILO (1) is the best of the rest after finishing fourth of 11 first-up over 2600m at Rangiora last time out.

Lacklustre performance first-up beaten 50 m fourth behind Love You Wilma at Rangiora in a 3yo+ on March 30. Strips fitter and is a winning chance.

Three-year-old filly lining up for the second time. At debut 11th (Fr5) over 2600m at Rangiora, well beaten by Love You Wilma (3:24.20) in 3yo+ on March 30 at $22.70. A much better run would not surprise.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished a narrow fourth behind Harriet's Moment at Oamaru over 2000m 3yo+ last start. Before that was beaten 1.4 metres second at Motukarara over 2170m in 4yo+ on March 16. Will be right in the thick of things.

Fair run when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Dragonhill at Motukarara over 2170m in a 4yo+ on March 16 at $4.10. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Love You Wilma at Rangiora over 2600m in a 3yo+ on March 30 at $2.40. Going along well. Strong chance again in this suitable race.
