Addington Extra Race 3

SUCK IT UP LTD DASH PBD

Stake: $4,400

OPAWA APRIL (8) was a dazzling 16.73 winner of a Class 5 FIN at this track over 295m last start. Only blemish in formline was when she turned in the boxes. Hot win latest and looks the one to beat again. OPAWA WEATHERLEY (2) could only fill a minor placing but still ran a dazzling 16.87 when second behind Opawa Mocha at this track over 295m last start. Beaten by a smart dog last start. Has the ability and can measure up here. HOMEBUSH ALANA (5) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by 0.7 lengths at this track in a handy 16.94 beating Hadwin Bale. Has a strong record out of this box with five wins and a minor placing from nine starts. Can measure up again. GOTCHA TANE (7) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently. Should be at good each-way value.

Looks close to another win after his success on June 19 at this track over 295m. Last start was second over 295m in 16.87, behind Opawa Mocha. Has clocked a scorching 16.62 here at this trip. Key chance.

Good effort to win last start by 3.5 lengths over 295m at this track in a handy (17.00), beating Tabetha Jewel. Capable of a good showing.

Solid performance to win by 0.7 lengths at this track over 295m (16.94) beating Hadwin Bale in Class 5 on August 28. Has run very fast time at this course and distance. Handled the step up in class last time.

Comes off a (17.01) win last time, scoring by 2.75 lengths in a Class 4 over 295m at this track. Goes very well from the draw boasting four victories and four places from 16 starts. Not among the main chances this time.

Has been in tremendous form, putting four wins together. Had plenty of support last start when she won by 1.5 lengths at this track (16.73) beating Cool Friends in a Class 5 FIN on September 11. Flying lately and can score again.
