Wentworth Park Race 7

Ladbrokes National Derby Final F

Prize Money: $100,000

ZIPPING KRISTOFF (1) jumped from out wide and had a clear run, crossing to the lead and holding on for a placing when second (29.58) at this track in a NG over 520m. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Deserves serious consideration. JUNGLE JOHNNY (7) comes off a (29.53) win last time, scoring by 0.8 lengths in a NG over 520m at this track. Can hit the frame with the right run. PAW OSWALD (3) shapes well for this backing up a powerful 29.35 win with success at this track over 520m last time, recording 29.82. This tougher but looks a leading chance again. ZIG ZAG MAN (5) should be thereabouts after filling a top-three at this track and distance most recently.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 520m in 29.49. Followed that up with a minor placing over 520m at this track at NG a week ago. Has run very fast time at this course and distance. Worth including.

Found the going tougher last start when second over 520m at this track. That followed a win two back in 29.74 beating Hamiso over 520m at this track. Predicted to struggle on this occasion.
