Addington Race 8

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MALCOLM GRANT SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $4,000

SWEET DELIA (8) held her own to the line last start and filled a minor placing, beaten only 1.3 lengths (17.37) behind Keeper Dream at this track. Took a strong dog to hold her out last start. Can go on with it. VERSACE JEWEL (2) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at Ascot Park over 390m behind Let Him Fizz (23.80) in a Class 1. Will appreciate a return to this venue and likely to be about the money. HOMEBUSH MAGGIE (6) stalked the lead from a middle draw and boxed on well to finish 1.75 lengths back in third (17.64) at this track in a Class 1 over 295m. Leading chance. HOMEBUSH MADI (4) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out. Is usually a speedy beginner from the lids.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and drifts back in her races. The latest effort was a 3.5 lengths fifth over 295m at this track. Hard to envisage a win.

At the last start finished 5th over 295m at this track beaten 9 lengths (17.84) behind Go Ruby in a Class 1 on April 24. Comes out of a hot form race. Looks one of the chances.

Racing well without winning, filling the minors at his last three starts, the latest when second (26.68) at Ascot Park. Will need a little luck early from the draw. One of the chances on best.
