Addington Race 6 - Darfield Itm Handicap Trot
HIGHGROVE (5) is a talented gelding first up from a break of 21 months who generally wastes no time finding form. Opened last prep with a fine second over 1980m at this track. Likely to attract plenty of interest from punters. CONFESSIONAL (3) finished an unlucky seventh last start over 2600m at this track, beaten 5.5 metres, after scoring at the previous appearance over 2600m at this track. This should be an easier assignment so he is a major player. MIGHTY LOGAN (4) is on the radar after his last-start sixth over 2600m at this track a week ago. AARDIEBYTHEHILL (7) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by half a metre at this track over 2600m.

Failed to impress last start; 7th (FrU5) over 2600m at this track beaten 5.5 m by Aardiebythehill (3:19.50) on September 6 at $9.30. Showed ability the outing before when posted a big 6 m win (FrU1) at this track (3:20.50) beating Galleons Ambassador in on August 30 at $4.40. Serious player on best form.
