Richmond Race 12

Steeline Riverstone Masters

Prize Money: $2,335

ZIPPING STROP (5) jumped from this box and placed in a Mix 3/4 at this track over 320m latest (18.56). Has a consistent record off this same box, including a win and two minors. Worth following up. MAJOR SOKO (2) has been in the frame at her last two runs, most recently when third (21.15) in a Mix 3/4 over 365m at Nowra. Expecting significant improvement this line-up. JENNIFER JUNIPER (6) was in the money again last time and not beaten far when third (18.59) at this track in a Mix 3/4. Can turn it around this time. MIDNIGHT STAR (3) gets a chance to redeem an unplaced effort here last start.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when second (18.88) over 320m at this track. Aided by the inside draw but will need a little luck to feature.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (18.59) in a Mix 1/2/3, finishing a 7 length sixth. Goes very well from the draw boasting four victories and three places from 11 starts. Suited here and expected to run well.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage sixth last time out over 340m at Bulli. Can't make much of a case this time.
