Addington Race 9 - RICOH 'RACING REWARDS' MOBILE PACE

DANCING DESIRE (7) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 7 metres from the winner in fourth over 1980m at this track. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position, but she is good enough with the right run to take this out. JUST ASK PADDY (5) finished sixth last start over 2300m at Mt Harding, beaten 9 metres, after filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 2600m at this track. Each way value. DESTINY'S DREAM (8) is next in line, and although she has to contend with an awkward gate, a win is not out of the question. SEASIDE POND (1) can make the most of this draw and is better than his last-start seventh over 2600m at this track. Each way.
