Addington Race 10 - HARNESSLINK HCP TROT
MAJOR DOOSIE (6) Back from a 27 week break. Ran well when 3rd last run at Ashburton and hard to fault at this trip. Returns to an increased distance. Will be in the finish. THE ROYAL GAMBLE (1) Finished 2nd last run at this track and drawn well. Returning to a longer distance. Strong chance. MILES AWAY (2) Below par when 11th last run at the track. Worth a ticket. ONE EL (3) Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last run at this track. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds.
