Addington Race 4

US CAPTAIN AT WAI EYRE FARM MOBILE PACE

Prize Money: -

BERRETTINI (5) showed plenty of fight at long odds to salute last time out over 1980m at this track, getting home by just 0.8 metres. Finds a nice race and will take plenty of beating once more. MIKI'S COURAGE (3) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 2000m at Motukarara Raceway last time out after racing parked-out with 1300m to run. With a better trip today can return to form. ROCK OR BUST (6) could only manage to finish eighth of 11 when resuming from a spell over 2600m at this track last start. Fitter and can do better. FREDASTAIRE (1) resumes from a spell and fresh-up from the pole draw can place.
