Addington Race 3 - THANKS FOR THE 40 PLUS YEARS OF SUPPORT GARRY THOMPSON PACE

BRILLIANT CHASE (3) made a nice return at his latest appearance two weeks ago, finishing 3 metres away in third over 1980m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meets a similar line up so he is capable of getting the job done. MIKI MAGNIFICENT (4) is a three-year-old gelding by Always B Miki from Just Gorgeous on debut. Trial winner who looks above average. Well-placed to score at his first appearance. ELEGANT DELIGHT (2) is a big chance following a run of three top-three finishes, the latest at this track eight days ago. Real threat to the top selections. LAST HONOURS (7) is a four-year-old gelding from the Tom Bagrie stable on debut. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position. Placed in a recent trial. Has the right credentials to play a major role.
