Ascot Park Race 5

EASTER BUNNY DASH PBD

Prize Money: $3,000

FAIRWAY FLYER (5) scored (17.27) last time out at Addington after jumping from this draw. Has raced over the middle distance at Addington so the extra distance today shouldn't worry him. Looks a leading chance on best. BERNIE LOU (7) missed the frame two back but wound up strongly last time, finishing on late when third (17.32) in a Class 2 at Addington. Has a strong winning record here. Leading player again. ONLY NUGGET (2) has been in the frame at her last two runs, most recently when third (22.92) in a Class 2 over 390m at this track. Mapped to get an economical run on the rails and is a combination must. MITCHAM BLUE (3) will make his presence felt on the back of recent top-three finishes.
