Addington Extra Race 4

GARRARD'S HORSE & HOUND DASH FEATURE PBD

Prize Money: $5,273

STRASBURG (8) is yet to be beaten at the journey, scoring four wins from as many starts. Recorded a 1.75 lengths win (16.89) in a Class 3 last time at this track. Only blemish in form line was when he was tried over the middle distance. Looks well placed and should feature. GOTCHA JASPER (4) was below best last time at this track (17.22) in a Class 4, finishing a 4 length fourth. Has already won two times from this draw. Looks suited here and can measure up. GO SWEDE (7) had the drop on the lead before drawing clear to score (17.09) at this track in Class 3 over 295m. Should be in this for a long way. GOTCHA HIDE (2) has strong credentials from this draw. Odds will be appealing.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.53) in a Class 4, finishing a 8 length fifth. Goes very well from the draw boasting four victories and 10 places from 16 starts. Looks a big chance.

Out of the placings last time but the run prior he was an eye-catching winner after leading throughout, scoring by 2.25 lengths in a Class 3 at this track and recording a dynamic 17.00 over the 295m journey. Well placed and a great chance to atone.

Good performance after racing just off the speed to win by 1.75 lengths at this track over 295m (17.19) beating Homebush Shauna in Class 3 on January 15. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Talented type with an excellent strike rate at this journey. Has been prominent in the run and duly saluted at his last couple, most recently over 295m at this track in a handy 16.89 beating Adobe Ego. Top chance to chalk-up the hat-trick.
