Trots OTX Addington - NZ

9-11 Central Southland Raceway 22May25 2400SS $11,790 NON-WINNERS 3U Brent Barclay $23, btn 65.1m, wnr The Merc , 2:06.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Hampered by a breaking runner at the start. Lay outwards rounding the final bend.

Has not trialled since her last outing ten weeks ago. Probably needs this hitout.

13-14 Addington 20Jul25 2000SS $12,420 NON-WINNERS 3U John Morrison $51, btn 147.7m, wnr Birdy , 2:06.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke after 100m losing all chance.

Finished 150 metres back in 13th at her latest run over 2000m at this track. Must do a lot more.

7-14 Addington 20Jul25 2000SS $12,420 NON-WINNERS 3U Steve Trotter $33, btn 34.8m, wnr Birdy , 2:06.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Continued some plain form when a mediocre seventh at this track over 2000m two weeks ago. Not keen.

8-14 Addington 20Jul25 2000SS $12,420 NON-WINNERS 3U Brent Borcoskie $56, btn 38.1m, wnr Birdy , 2:06.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Easily accounted for last time when 40 metres from the winner in eighth over 2000m at this track. This looks a far sterner task.

12-13 Addington 27Jul25 2000SS $11,193 NON-WINNERS & UP TO R40 WITH C Lionel Dobbs $128, btn 117.7m, wnr Ruthless Emma , 2:07.6 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has raced twice this campaign and failed to fill a top-three spot on either occasion, the latest when 12th over 2000m at this track, beaten 120 metres. This looks far too tough.

11-13 Addington 27Jul25 2000SS $11,193 NON-WINNERS & UP TO R40 WITH C Samantha Ottley $42, btn 104.2m, wnr Ruthless Emma , 2:07.6 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Missed the placings again last start, beaten 105 metres when 11th over 2000m at this track. Others make more appeal.

5-8 Addington 25Jul25 1980MS $14,880 NON-WINNERS 3U Ricky May $30, btn 40.5m, wnr Origin , 2:03.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Trotted roughly late in the score up and was out of position at the start. Lost ground passing the 1100m. Weakened final bend.

Ran a better race last time out when fifth over 1980m at this track. Tackles a longer trip now. Should strip fitter and play a role in the finish.

2-13 Addington 27Jul25 2000SS $11,193 NON-WINNERS & UP TO R40 WITH C Paul Nairn $15, btn 0.3m, wnr Ruthless Emma , 2:07.6 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Ran a much better race last start when runner-up over 2000m at this track, beaten just a neck. Has the same draw and should produce again.

7-13 Addington 27Jul25 2000SS $11,193 NON-WINNERS & UP TO R40 WITH C J R Ford $8, btn 8.6m, wnr Ruthless Emma , 2:07.6 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Didn't make an impact last time when seventh at this track over 2000m. That run followed a minor placing two runs back at this track. Can make amends.

2-8 Addington 25Jul25 1980MS $14,880 NON-WINNERS 3U Samantha Ottley $7, btn 0.5m, wnr Origin , 2:03.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Rarely far away of late, including a last start second over 1980m at this track. Racing well and is a leading contender.

6-8 Addington 25Jul25 1980MS $14,880 NON-WINNERS 3U Robbie Close $25, btn 50.0m, wnr Origin , 2:03.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Weakened final bend.

Didn't do a lot when resuming last start, finishing sixth at this track over 1980m and beaten 50 metres. Expect to see a much better run.

12-14 Addington 20Jul25 2000SS $12,420 NON-WINNERS 3U Paul Borcoskie $77, btn 105.3m, wnr Birdy , 2:06.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke after 100m losing all chance.

Missed the placings again last start, beaten 105 metres when 12th over 2000m at this track. Unlikely to threaten.

2-7 Addington 30Apr25 2600SS $7,300 NON-WINNERS MR40 TO MR46 3U Ricky May $7, btn 2.4m, wnr Big Al , 2:15.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Hampered by a breaking runner near the 500m. Forced wider on the track by an inside runner in the run home.

Last raced at this track three-and-a-half months ago when she finished second, beaten 2.5 metres over 2600m. Can open the campaign with a forward performance.

10-13 Addington 27Jul25 2000SS $11,193 NON-WINNERS & UP TO R40 WITH C Robbie Holmes $100, btn 67.5m, wnr Ruthless Emma , 2:07.6 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has raced twice this campaign and failed to fill a top-three spot on either occasion, the latest when tenth over 2000m at this track, beaten 70 metres. Has the task ahead.
