Addington Race 9 - SPRINGSTON HOTEL STAKES
LET HIM COOK (5) took advantage of the inside draw and gave a big sight in front when second and beaten 0.7 lengths (30.43) at this track in a Class 5 over 525m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Took a strong dog to beat him last start and is well-placed to take this out. IT'S OKAY (4) has a strong overall record having seven wins and 13 places from 28 starts but was out of the money last time when fourth (30.46) over 525m at this track. Small field will assist chances and expected to run well. ZESTFUL (3) missed the frame last time at this track but the start prior rocketed around 525m at this track in 30.18. Has the ability and looks a key chance. EXPLORER BOOTS (7) was a winner two back and strongly fancied last time but could only manage fifth (30.75) at this track.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (30.46) in a Class 4/5, finishing a 3 length fourth. Has performed well off the draw with a win and three places from five starts. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage eighth last time out over 525m at this track. Will not find this easy. Cannot enthuse on this occasion.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 525m in 30.36. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fifth over 525m at this track at Class 4 level. Has ability and worth including.
