Addington Race 9

Geoff Mckenzie Memorial Sprint Pbd

Prize Money: $6,818

EVEREST SKY (7) stalked lead from an outside box last start before finishing second (16.81) at this track in a Class 5 over 295m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Deserves serious consideration. HOMEBUSH ALANA (2) goes very well this trip starting 16 times for 10 wins and two minors. Recorded a 0.7 lengths win (16.86) in a Class 5 last time at this track. With even luck and a clean start can sneak into the finish. GOLDSTAR DUFFY (5) lines up here off a comfortable win at this track after jumping from box 5 (16.63). Will need some luck early after drawing a tricky box here. Winner at her latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. Form should stack up. OPAWA WEATHERLEY (6) has a solid strike rate at this distance.

Strong performance showing plenty of speed to score by a nose in a Class 4 last start at this track, clocking an outstanding 16.97 for the 295m trip. Harder here but worth including in multiples.

Finished in the minors last time but the start prior was a dominant winner after leading throughout, scoring by 8 lengths in a Class 5 FIN at Manukau and clocking a lightning 18.14 over the 318m trip. Rates a top chance if runs up to time two back.

Hit the frame last time at this track but the start prior was a strong winner after leading throughout, scoring by 2.25 lengths in a Class 4 at this track and recording a dazzling 16.89 for the 295m journey. Harder here but worth including in multiples.

Comments

Could manage only fourth last time but turned heads the start prior when he was an eye-catching winner scoring by 3.5 lengths in a R/A at this track and clocking a lightning 16.79 over the 295m trip. Rates on top and can find winning form again.

Expected Early Speed:Midfield
