Ascot Park Race 12

SPEAK UP GIRL DASH PBD

Prize Money: $4,545

CLASSY BLAZER (7) settled midfield in the run and boxed on to finish there when 4th (21.50) at Manawatu. Will appreciate a return down south to this venue and should be very hard to beat this time. BIG DIVOT (3) has a strong record this journey here with two wins and a minor from five starts. Missed the frame latest (17.26) when fourth over 295m at Addington in a Class 4. Looks one of the chances. HOMEBUSH HARRY (8) was prominent throughout when winning two back but could manage only midfield last time when 6th and beaten 9 lengths at this track (23.16). Should be thereabouts. FOXY THOMAS (2) cannot be overlooked following a recent top-three finish from this box. Odds will be lucrative.

Comments

Didn't make the placings last time at Addington (17.26) in a Class 4, finishing a 5.5 lengths fourth. Yet to score but has placed each of two runs from this draw. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a seventh over 295m at Addington. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Out of the placings last time but the run prior she was an eye-catching winner scoring by 2.5 lengths in a Class 3 at this track. Gets chance to atone.
