Ascot Park Race 6

ORETI BEACH RUN

Prize Money: $5,182

OPAWA SWAN (3) was out of character last run when missing the frame, finishing fourth (17.74) in a Class 1 FIN at Addington. Normally fast to begin but shuffled back last time. Should bounce back despite having first run on this course. HOMEBUSH TUCKER (7) is building a nice sequence of placings and is sure to play a big role again. PRADA JEWEL (4) good effort last time when third (17.89) over 295m at Addington. Coming off a solid run but has won just two of 20 runs. Top three chance.

Form has been good with a placing two starts ago and a win three runs back. Last time out finished 2nd over 295m at Addington beaten 7 lengths (17.88) behind Impressive Nora in a Class 1 on June 8. Better than the last couple of runs suggest. Expected to feature.
