Addington Race 4

KINGS BIRTHDAY SPRINT HEAT 3 PBD

Prize Money: $2,636

HARD FROST (8) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (17.30) last time out at this track. Good form should continue. VAL JEWEL (4) settled down midfield and held her position to the line when finishing 4th (17.26) at this track. The form from her last run stacks up well. One of the main contenders. HOMEBUSH BLUEY (3) produced a moderate performance last time when sixth at this track over 295m behind Eight Bells (17.71) in a Class 1. A big run wouldn't surprise.

Latest effort finished 6th on May 26 over 295m at this track behind Eight Bells beaten 7 lengths (17.71) in a Class 1. Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when second (17.46) over 295m at this track. Tricky draw to overcome but can measure up.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and drifts back in her races. Last start finished sixth over 457m at Ascot Park, beaten 11 lengths. Happy enough to avoid.

Finished in the minors last time but the start prior was an eye-catching winner scoring by half a length in a Class 1 H at this track and clocking a solid 17.22 over the 295m trip. Rates a top chance if runs up to time two back.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage seventh last time out over 390m at Ascot Park. Not going well enough. Needs to lift.
