Addington Race 7

SANTA LOVES GREYHOUND RACING DASH PBD

Prize Money: $3,000

ROBERTO JEWEL (7) has recorded back to back wins, last time scoring at this track over 295m by half a length (17.06). Great chance to get the job done again. OPAWA BAXTER (6) scored (16.88) last time out at this track adding to an already respectable career. Won at his only start from this box. Does run time when he wins and expected to feature again. DEFER (8) clocked a speedy 16.99 finishing second in a Class 2 at this track last start. Not the quickest beginner but does have a powerful finish. In form and looks a leading player again. ANOTHER LOVE (4) was a winner two back and strongly fancied last time but could only manage fourth (17.90) at this track. Is on the quick back-up after racing on Monday.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Ascot Park over 390m in 22.76. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 295m at this track at Class 1 level. Look for improvement. Has claims on best form.
