Addington Race 3 - MAIA HEALTH FOUNDATION MOBILE PACE

RUSTENBURG (5) finished third two starts back at this track then made short work of his rivals last start to win by 16 metres over 1980m at this track. Meets a comparable field and he can go right on with the job. HEAVEN'S MARK (6) made it two on the trot last start when she got the cash by 2.25 metres over 2600m at Oamaru. Finds a tougher race but she has the ability to test this field. AUNTIE DEB (1) is on the radar after his last-start sixth over 1980m at this track a week ago. Has each-way claims. TRUMP CARD (3) is worth some thought despite his last-start seventh over 1980m at this track on August 22. Include in exotic bets.

Last start 6th (Fr6) over 1980m at this track beaten 10 m by Crunch Time (2:23.80) in 3yo+ on August 22 at $21.40. Before that, a good run when 2nd (Fr7) over 2600m at this track, beaten 2.25 m by Action Major (3:15.00) on July 13 at $7.40. Drawn favourably and is worth another chance.

Six-year-old mare is racing in fine form. Won her last two outings at Oamaru and Ashburton Raceway. Last start won by 2.25 m (15m 3) at Oamaru (3:16.90) beating The Bettor Major in 3yo+ on August 17 at $4.90. Hard to knock current form; likely to be in the finish again.

Didn't do much last time out, 10th (Fr1) over 1980m at this track, beaten 25 m by Our Shangri Lana (2:25.50) in 3yo+ on August 22 at $56.80. Before that 8th (Fr3) over 1980m at this track beaten 24 m by Our Shangri Lana (2:24.40) in 3yo+ on August 1 at $52.40. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.
