Addington Race 5

ROSE AND THISTLE SPRINT FEATURE PBD

Stake: $3,100

GEORGIE PIE (2) ran below her best last time, finishing sixth (17.47) over 295m at this track in a Class 5. Has a solid record from this box, including five wins and a minor placing. Has the ability and can bounce back. KEYARA (6) sizzled around 295m in 17.02 when winning a Class 3 at this track last start. Rates a leading chance if she runs up to latest. OPAWA SNOWDROP (8) missed the frame but ran a slick fifth at this track over 295m in 17.21. Harder here but expected to measure up. ROSE PETAL (7) recorded a commanding victory last time. Right in the mix.

Last couple of starts have been ordinary but she does have good record over this track and distance. Has run hot time here with a 16.81 PB at the distance. Key chance.

Strong performance showing plenty of speed to score by 3.5 lengths in a Class 3 last start at this track, clocking an outstanding 17.02 for the 295m trip. Can measure up again if runs up to that effort.
