Addington Race 8

KINGS BIRTHDAY SPRINT HEAT 7 PBD

Stake: $2,900

HOMEBUSH SWINDLE (4) ran below best last time, finishing fifth (17.64) over 295m at this track in a Class 1. Should bounce back. OPAWA BETH (6) doesn't win out of turn. Finished in the money last time though when third (17.74) at this track. Solid record at the distance, winning three races. Has performed well from this box with a win and three minor placings to her name from seven starts. Hard to beat again. LEONARDO JEWEL (2) is a handy type who notched his 1st career success when too good (17.40) from Box 2 at this track. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Sure to be thereabouts. HOMEBUSH ARI (3) is a last-start placegetter with solid claims again. Include in all combinations.
