Addington Race 2

ORETI BEACH COLLABORATION HEAT

Prize Money: $5,818

HAS POTENTIAL (5) turned in a modest effort most recently when sixth at this track over 295m behind Everest Sky (17.52) in a Class 4/5. Has a solid record from this box including three wins and a minor placing. Drops in class for this and has claims if she runs up to expectations. OPAWA SPONGE (1) ran a swift 17.24 when filling a minor placing over 295m at this track last start. Expecting another bold showing from the ace box. WELLY WALLY (7) has been out of the placings at his last two outings but shapes well for this if he can recapture his convincing win a few runs back, getting around this track over 295m in 17.11. Has the ability and can find winning form again. VILI VROOM VROOM (3) meets a small field and is worth including.
