Addington Race 1

The Fitz 2 Sports Bar Sprint Pbd

Stake: $2,800

GOLDSTAR BRUISER (1) is yet to miss the placings in an excellent record this trip which boasts five wins and three placings. In the money last time at this track (17.19) in a Class 3, finishing a 2.25 lengths third. With a clean break looks hard to beat. OPAWA WEATHERLEY (4) was a strong winner (17.03) from box 5 last time, scoring by 3.5 lengths at this track. Has the squeeze box to overcome and will need the breaks early. Ran the fastest time on the program in his latest win. Has definite claims. GOTCHA LENNY (8) goes very well this course and distance starting 10 times for four wins and four minors. Missed the frame latest (17.61) when fifth over 295m at this track in a Class 3. Among the main chances. GREAT POTENTIAL (7) was out of the money here last time out but can bounce back.

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 2.25 lengths third but did record a flying 17.19 over the 295m journey. Looks the one to beat with a repeat of that effort.
