First horses confirmed for Show Day slot races

[Wandering Eyes]

The first horses have been announced for the two $500,000 slot races at Addington Raceway on Show Day (November 14).

And they won’t be a surprise to anyone.

Top three-year-old trotters Tarragindi and Meant To Be have been confirmed for the Majestic Horse Floats THE ASCENT while the Hill Lee and Scott THE VELOCITY will feature pacing stars Marketplace and Got The Chocolates.

The pair clashed at Addington earlier this month with the Robert and Jenna Dunn-trained Got The Chocolates prevailing by a neck.

But Marketplace, rated as a potential superstar by many, is the $1.75 favourite in the TAB markets to win THE VELOCITY, with Got The Chocolates the second elect at $3.50.

In THE ASCENT Tarragindi, who was bred and is trained by Phil Williamson and raced by wife Bev, has won four from 10 while Meant To Be, last year’s star trotter in the 2YO ranks, has won nine from 13 overall and opened his latest campaign with a second to Habibti Pat at Addington last Friday night.

The TAB currently has Meant To Be at $4.20 and Tarragindi at $9.

The next announcement regarding horses for both races is expected later this week.

2025 will see the second edition of THE ASCENT and THE VELOCITY after they were taken out by Australian superstar Keayang Zahara and Better Knuckle Up last year.
