Addington Race 1 - BUY A WOODLANDS STAR 20 MAY MOBILE PACE
SACETAS (1) had no luck last start but was going well prior having kicked off the campaign with a win and a close second, both at this venue. Should enjoy better fortune from the ace draw so can atone. IRON BRIGADE (6) continues to race well having only once missed the top-four in eight starts this time in. Winner at Mt Harding two runs ago and can measure up in this small field. SPIRIT DOWNUNDER (5) was held up and luckless last start but had decent form prior including a Reefton win three back. Proven at this distance so is worth another chance. LAVRA ROSE (4) did a good job for second from the back line here last time and won three of her previous four outings. Respect.
