More confirmed for Show Day Slot races

[Wandering Eyes]

A raft of new horses have been confirmed for the two new slot races at Addington Raceway’s Show Day Twilight meeting on Friday, Tuesday November 15.

Dreams Are Free, Coastal Babe and Renegade will take their place in the $500,000 Hill, Lee and Scott THE VELOCITY while Bounce N Beyond, Judy J and Princess Sadie have all been confirmed for the $500,000 Majestic Horse Floats LP THE ASCENT.

The winner of this month’s Southern Trotting Oaks, Princess Sadie replaces the Pukekohe Punter’s original selection, Cyclone Zion W.

Trained by Ken Ford and Amanda Tomlinson, Judy J will take up the slot owned by Bond Racing (Greg and Skye Bond) from Western Australia while the Robert and Jenna Dunn-trained Bounce N Beyond will be Small Car World’s representative. The Majestic Son gelding was back in winning form at Addington last Friday.

Only one spot remains in THE ASCENT while THE VELOCITY has now had seven places taken, with three remaining.

Dreams Are Free, an impressive last start winner at Ashburton in the Garrard’s Sires’ Stakes Sophomore Classic, has taken up the slot purchased by Brendan Fahy along with Nathan Williamson Racing and the Dreams Are Free Syndicate.

Renegade was fourth in the same race at Ashburton and will take up the slot bought by Australian Diane Reilly, a hugely successful owner who won the 2022 Melbourne Inter Dominion with I Cast No Shadow.  Renegade is trained by Brendon Hill and has won two of his last three starts.

Coastal Babe will race for slot-holders ABR and Summit Bloodstock. The multiple Group 1 winner is part owned by the Queensland-based Summit Bloodstock and will head back this side of the Tasman after winning two from two in Australia, including the Victoria Oaks at Melton on October 12. Overall she has won seven from 14.
