Ascot Park Race 10

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALAN PETERSON

Prize Money: $6,455

STUCK THROTTLE (4) has been without a win for a while, the latest jumping from the squeeze draw when fifth (31.07) at Addington in a Class 5. Faces a significant drop in class today and is a key runner on his best form. OPAWA EMILY (6) missed the frame last time but before that recorded the quickest win (30.42) on the program at Addington in a Class 2/3. Well placed here and can atone this time. OPAWA SCOOTER (2) turned in a modest effort most recently when seventh at this track over 457m behind HOMEBUSH SUNNY (26.57) in a Class 3. The form from his last run stacks up well. Great chance to atone. DIAMOND PRINCE (5) was beaten into fourth last time but ran impressive time with a slick 17.23. Worth thought on that run.

Didn't make the placings last time at Addington (31.14) in a Class 5, finishing a 12 length sixth. Goes very well off the draw boasting three wins and three places from seven starts. Can measure up.

Last start finished 7th in a Class 3 on June 10 over 457m at this track behind Homebush Sunny beaten 6 lengths (26.57). Below best last time but looks well placed here. Looks a top chance.

Found the going tougher last start when second over 295m at Addington. That followed a win two back in 26.15 beating Lord Arrow over 457m at this track. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.
