Ascot Park Race 11

CHRISTCHURCH GREYHOUNDS RUN

Prize Money: $5,455

GOTCHA SUNNY (2) missed the frame last time when fifth (23.05) at this track in a Class 1/2 but not beaten far the start prior. Can turn form around here. DIAMOND VIENNA (5) was well back throughout but attacked the line to score by 1.3 lengths (27.19) at this track in Class 1. Significant danger despite rising in class. VERSACE JEWEL (8) comes off an average run last start when fifth at Addington over 525m behind Smelly Halle (30.73) in a Class 2 FIN. Placed at his previous run. Key runner on best form. IMPRESSIVE SHOCK (3) will appreciate a return to this venue and can sneak into the finish.

Missed the frame last start when a 11 length seventh (17.71) at Addington. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Is a danger.
