Race 7

Prize Money: $734

ARDEVAN DICKIE (1) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, rewarded with a win last time at this track over 280m. Got the money at his only try from this box. Well placed and can measure up. RUSSANDA ZARA (6) boasts a consistent overall record including five wins from 16 starts, but missed the frame latest when fourth (16.83) over 280m at this track. Rates a winning chance on best. MARCH ON KIT (5) missed the frame two runs back then won at her latest appearance by 2.25 lengths at this track over 280m (16.23). Tackles tougher grade here but in form and looks a contender again. RUSSANDA MEGA (2) is going well, filling a minor placing two back then was a 1.5 lengths winner of a D2 at this track over 280m (16.28). Facing tougher but in form and not to be underestimated.
