Trots ATX Addington - NZ

6-10 Oamaru 05Mar25 2600MS $10,615 R44 TO R47 3U Wilson House $3, btn 8.4m, wnr Watching Brief , 2:00.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Raced wide early. Held up early stages of the run home and shifted outwards near the 150m simultaneously to Lord Fantasy improving forward to its outside, resulting in that runner being placed in restricted room. Continued to be held up for the remainder of the race.

Continued a long run of outs when beaten 8 metres at Oamaru over 2600m nine days ago. Capable of testing this field.

1-10 Oamaru 05Mar25 2600MS $10,615 R44 TO R47 3U Sam Thornley $10, won by 2nd Sophia Bromac , 2:00.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Won over 2600m at Oamaru most recently after a plain effort at Ashburton Raceway the start before. Looks very hard to beat.

9-12 Addington 28Feb25 1980MS $18,000 R40 TO R48 3U Sam Thornley $22, btn 17.3m, wnr Hugo , 1:59.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Comes here off a last-start ninth over 1980m at this track, beaten 17 metres. This looks a far sterner task.

1-9 Rangiora 02Mar25 1950MS $11,370 NON-WINNERS 4U Blair Orange $1, won by 2nd She's A Major Act , 2:04.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Was runner-up two back before getting home by 1.5 metres last time out over 1950m at Rangiora. Going well and has to be included.

7-10 Addington 07Feb25 1980MS $17,370 R40 TO R50 FM 3U Wilson House $11, btn 29.4m, wnr Beside Me , 1:57.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Easily accounted for last time when 30 metres from the winner in seventh over 1980m at this track. Facing a tough assignment this time around.

6-10 Oamaru 05Mar25 2600MS $10,615 R48 TO R55 Hayden Douglas $25, btn 28.4m, wnr Seaside Rose , 1:58.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Safely held last time when 30 metres from the winner in sixth over 2600m at Oamaru. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

7-9 Addington 28Feb25 1980MS $18,003 R49 TO R52 3U Robbie Close $7, btn 5.9m, wnr Bettor Be Sharp , 1:58.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Briefly locked wheels with Dave Duley near the 300m.

Won three back at Oamaru but hasn't lived up to that form since, his latest effort a seventh at this track over 1980m, beaten 6 metres. Among the chances on his best form.

7-11 Addington 29Nov24 1980MS $100,000 F 2 Blair Orange $28, btn 23.2m, wnr Stella Rouge , 1:57.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Over-raced middle stages. Checked by a breaking runner near the 900m.

First up since finishing seventh over 1980m at this track three-and-a-half months ago. Very hard to beat.

3-9 Addington 28Feb25 1980MS $18,003 R49 TO R52 3U Carter Dalgety $6, btn 1.1m, wnr Bettor Be Sharp , 1:58.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Ran a much better race last start when third at this track over 1980m, beaten 1.1 metres. With even luck is a winning chance.

8-9 Addington 28Feb25 1980MS $18,003 R49 TO R52 3U Ricky Alfeld $26, btn 16.7m, wnr Bettor Be Sharp , 1:58.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Hung inwards in the score up and was out of position at the start.

Easily accounted for last time when 16 metres from the winner in eighth over 1980m at this track. This looks a far sterner task.

2-12 Addington 28Feb25 1980MS $18,000 R40 TO R48 3U John R Dunn $13, btn 0.5m, wnr Hugo , 1:59.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has filled a minor placing at his last two starts, the latest effort a second over 1980m at this track. One of the chances.
