Addington (G) Race 3

THANK YOU TO RAY KINGSTON DASH PBD

Prize Money: $4,091

NOTHING FORMAL (7) has a strong record this journey here with three wins and a minor from five starts. Missed the frame latest (17.52) when fourth over 295m at this track in a Class 1 FIN. Rates a leading player. LET HIM FIZZ (2) could manage only third at this track last time but caught the eye when clocking a strong 17.25 over 295m at this track three starts ago. Can show good box speed. Top win three back and can measure up again. DIAMOND NICKI (4) is a fast beginner who has shown good improvement at her last two starts, rewarded with a win last time at this track over 295m. The form from her last run stacks up well. Likely to be in the finish. HOMEBUSH QUINN (5) gave nothing else a chance most recently. That form reads well. Running out nominations in the same grade.

Hit the frame latest (17.43) when third at this track in a Class 2 H. Has two successes and five minors from eight starts from box 2. Looks suited and should go close.

Comments

Resumes from a four months spell and was in the minors at only other fresh up run, finishing third at big odds over 295m at this track. Recently had a solo trial (17.41) on this track over 295m. Top-three chance.

Good effort to score just four days ago over 295m at this track by 2 lengths in a Class 1. Solid formlines coming through that last run. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 2.5 lengths over 390m at Ascot Park in a handy 23.45, beating Diaz. In form and is right in the mix again.

Missed the frame last start when eighth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.

Has struggled to jump cleanly in recent outings and the results have been disappointing, the most recent effort a seventh over 295m at this track. Prepared to risk on this occasion.
