Addington Race 8

COMMODORE HOTEL 'FOR ALL YOUR ACCOMMODATION NEEDS' TROT

Stake: $16,000

TARRAGINDI (1) made a nice return at his latest appearance three weeks ago, finishing 10 metres away in second over 1980m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Finds a nice race and will take plenty of beating once more. KASHANOVA (7) after winning his debut run as the favourite two runs back ran second last start at Rangiora over 2600m, beaten 20 metres. Talented and has plenty of upside. Expect him to be prominent. VIVA LA VIDA (10) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 10 metres at this track over 1980m after leading for most of the trip. MUSCLE MIST (9) broke through last time out over 2200m at Ascot Park Raceway when making her debut. Must be included with the confidence up.

Last start was well beaten into second behind Paddy McDaddy at Rangiora over 2600m on May 18 at $5.50. Performed better the start before where he won by 3 m as favourite (Fr1) at Rangiora (2:36.20) beating Billy Kimber in 3yo+ on May 4 at $1.80. Capable of taking this out.

Last start won by 10 m (Fr4) at this track (2:30.90) beating Billy Kimber in 3yo+ on June 6 at $6. Should be at his top fourth-up from a spell and looks the one to beat again.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield

Last start 12th (FrU4) over 2400m at Ashburton Raceway beaten 75 m by Silvester (3:02.10) on June 1 at $20.30. Two runs back posted a big 9 m win (FrU2) at Phar Lap Raceway (3:29.70) beating Kd Grins in 3yo+ on May 25 at $15.90. Will find this tough.

Expected Settling Position: Backmarker
