Addington Race 2

TREVOR WILKES MEMORIAL HEAT 1

Prize Money: $6,091

YUKI (2) turned in a plain run last time when sixth at Ascot Park over 457m behind Jerry Cola (26.12) in a Class 5 FIN. Has never been out of the placings from two starts out of this box. Won the NZ Derby and can atone. AVATAR SPEED (6) is an honest type rarely out of the money, scoring at Wanganui (29.91) last time and making it three straight wins. Strike rate this distance strong having won four of eight tries. Having first start this track but with an ounce of luck is capable of featuring in the finish. OPAWA FANNIN (8) has a strong record this trip with six wins and six placings from 17 starts. In the money last time at this track (30.24) in a Class 4/5, finishing a 1.5 lengths second. Is a major player. OPAWA JOSEPH (5) usually slow away so draw no favours but does hit the line strongly. Can measure up with the right run.

Missed the frame latest (26.12) when sixth over 457m at Ascot Park in a Class 5 FIN. Yet to score but has placed each of two runs from this draw. Makes strong appeal.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.82) in a Class 2, finishing a 7 length seventh. Strong record off the draw with three wins and two minors from seven starts. Looks tested.

Finished third last start (30.51) at big odds over 525m at this track. Will need a little luck early from the draw. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (30.67) in a Class 5, finishing a 7 length fourth. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. With a clean start should be thereabouts.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start comfortably by 5.5 lengths at Wanganui (29.91) beating Wingatui Wizard in a Class 4/5 on May 1. On a hot winning streak and likely to score again.

Finished second last start (30.04) at big odds over 520m at Wanganui. Wide draw here. May find this a bit too tough.

Was among the placegetters latest at this track when a 1.5 lengths second but did clock a solid 30.24 over the 525m trip. Has claims if at his best.
