Addington Race 9

GOLD BAND TAXIS MOBILE PACE

Stake: $19,000

J T BOE (5) finished fourth last start over 2600m at this track, beaten 7 metres, after a good win at this track the run prior. Has the talent to take care of this field. COCKTAILS AND CAVIAR (8) last appeared when a sixth over 2600m at this track on July 11, capping off a fine prep that saw him salute on three occasions. Has to contend with a very wide draw. Will have plenty of admirers. LESTER (2) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 2600m at this track. HERE'S HERBIE (4) could only finish 12th over 2600m at this track most recently. Open to improvement and is worth considering.
