Addington Extra Race 3

STEVE ANNGOW DRAPES & BLINDS PH.0272719588 DASH PBD

Prize Money: $3,455

GOTCHA HIDE (3) stalked the lead after a clean break from the tricky draw and went on to finish second (16.95) at this track in a Class 4 over 295m. Can find winning form. GOTCHA JASPER (6) is in top form, scoring by 2.25 lengths (17.00) over 295m at this track and making it back to back wins. In great form and can continue his winning ways. PICKLE SWITCH (8) is a promising dog in the frame at 10 of 18 starts including six wins and was in the minors again latest (17.08) over 295m at this track. Goes very well here finding the frame in each of 10 starts. Looks suited and expected to run well. HOMEBUSH POSTIE (2) was out of the money at this circuit last start but can atone. Odds will be appealing.

Snuck into the minor money last time when a 0.7 lengths second at this track but did record an exceptional 16.95 over the 295m journey. Right in this.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th in a Class 4 on January 29 over 295m at this track behind Opawa Akaela beaten 4.5 lengths (17.33). Placed two back at this track. Has claims if at his best.

Was in the placings last time but prior to that was an eye-catching winner scoring by 4 lengths in a Class 3 at this track. Looks a key chance.
