Addington (G) Race 2

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CRAIG WHITE DASH PBD

Stake: $2,800

DIAMOND IVY (2) recorded her best time this course and distance latest, finishing a 5 length third behind Daisy Lu in 17.75. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. HOMEBUSH TOKYO (4) comes off an average run last start when seventh at this track over 295m behind Opawa Scarlet (18.12) in a Class 0 H. Was in the money prior to that. Comes through a solid form race last start. Should be in this for a long way. FROM NOW ON (3) has her first outing without a trial but profiles nicely for this. Among the main hopes. SKELETOR (7) makes debut for the D A Roberts kennel. Start all important and will need some luck getting across from the wide draw. Betting to provide the best guide to his chances.

Yet to break through in three runs, the latest effort a third over 295m at this track in 17.75. Has finished in the money at the last two starts. Top chance to get off the mark.

Has ability but remains a maiden after five starts, the most recent effort a seventh (18.12) over 295m at this track. Looks a key chance this line-up.

Ended last campaign with a fifth (17.78) in a CL 0 at this track and returns after a three-and-a-half months break. Others are better placed.

Comments

Turned in a fair debut run over 390m at Ascot Park where he settled off the pace and battled on to finish fourth (23.43) and beaten 2.25 lengths. Should be further improved. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

Has ability but remains a maiden after four starts, the most recent effort a fourth (26.79) over 457m at Manawatu. Although yet to win tends to go well here. Others rate better.
