Ascot Park Race 3

KAYTEE DIVA RUN

Prize Money: $5,182

OPAWA MUFFIN (2) is yet to miss the placings here in an excellent record which boasts two wins. Was out of placings last time (31.79) at Addington in a Class 1, finishing eighth and beaten 15 lengths. Looks well placed and should feature. KEEPER DREAM (1) was popular in betting last start but disappointed when 5.5 lengths away in sixth (17.81). Was in the money the start prior. Will give the top chances plenty to think about. HOMEBUSH TUCKER (4) had been racing well prior to his last start fourth at this track following a Class 1 win three back with a second placing. Can hit the frame this time. KYLIE BAXTER (5) is another with top-three prospects. Should appreciate a return to this venue.
