Addington Race 7

THE HOMEKILL GUYS NZ BRED SPRINT FEATURE FINAL PBD

Prize Money: $9,091

JERRY COLA (6) is a sprinter who thrives over these shorter races. Was a strong winner last time (16.55) over 295m at this track in a Class 5 H. Solid record here at the distance winning 25 races. Is yet to miss the placings from this draw, including six wins, from eight starts. Is a champion greyhound and expected to go close again. CLAWS IN SPARKY (1) was game in defeat when finishing in the minors last start over the 295m at this track, running a fast 16.94 in a Class 5 H. Expecting another bold showing from the ace. MAX EFFORT (2) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by 2 lengths at this track in a handy 16.86 beating DECISION TIME. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. Sure to measure up. PRIORITY (8) is in the mix despite finishing out of the placings here last start. Is strong to the line over this trip.

Scored by 2 lengths last time (16.86) in a Class 5 H over 295m at this track. Has two successes and two minors from six starts from box 2. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 295m. Last start finished 3rd over 295m at this track beaten 3.5 lengths (17.11) behind Max Effort in a Class 5 H on February 5. Boxed on well last time to hit the frame. Looks a solid contender.

Finished in the minors last time in a Class 5 H at this track when a 2 length second but did run a superb 17.00 over the 295m journey. May find this a bit too tough.

Eye-catching performance showing plenty of speed to score by 5.5 lengths in a Class 5 H last start at this track, clocking a lightning 16.55 over the 295m trip. Looks well placed and should feature.

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 9 length third but did record a swift 17.22 over the 295m journey. Hard to tip with any confidence in this field.

Comments

Missed the frame latest (17.13) when fourth over 295m at this track in a Class 5 H. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and five places from 11 starts. Makes appeal on best.
