Addington Race 6 - CATHOLIC CATHEDRAL PARISH MBL TROT
EYES WIDE OPEN (5) Initial race appearance for trainer Hayden Cullen & Amanda Cullen. Watch the betting. LA VENTURE (2) Resuming after a spell. Looked good when 2nd last run at this track. Hard to dismiss. ROYAL MONARCH (7) First up and narrowly clinched the victory first up last preparation around here. Looks a winning hope. KINGDOM HILL (4) Having first race appearance for trainer Steve Telfer & Amanda Telfer. Driver Tim Williams is an asset. Betting as a guide.

Sprinting well when she broke 19 Aug trials. Not bombproof, but could stun.
