Addington Race 5

ROSE & THISTLE NZ OAKS HEAT 1

Prize Money: $6,091

PURE PRECISION (5) has a strong record this trip with nine wins and three placings from 17 starts. Comes off a (30.00) win last time, scoring by half a length in a Class 5 over 520m at Wanganui. Having first look at this course but still rates a leading player. KERI JUNIOR (1) goes very well this trip starting 20 times for seven wins and seven minors. Was out of placings last time (30.60) at this track in a Class 3/4, finishing sixth and beaten 2.5 lengths. Has had a solo trial (30.55) on this track over 525m. Can feature in the finish. BUSY WORK (7) was below best latest but did hit the frame in quick time two back when third (30.67) at this track in a Class 1 H. Meets a field lacking experience over the middle distance so he should be running home better than most. CLASSY NOA (8) with some luck can improve on an unplaced run last time here. Has her first start at a middle distance but her racing style suggest she can handle it.

Won her last two including a narrow win last start over 520m at Wanganui by half a length in a Class 5. Looks well placed to make it three straight.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and drifts back in her races. Last start finished eighth over 525m at this track, beaten 8 lengths. Hard to recommend this time.

Has finished sixth at her last couple of starts, most recently at this track over 295m. With even luck and a clean start she should be prominent at the business end.
