Richmond Straight Race 11

Prize Money: $2,335

ZIPPING KEPIL (1) was in the placings last time but prior to that clocked a slick 25.42 win over 450m at Shepparton. Smart win two back and looks a key chance here. REDEMPTIONIST (7) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (18.12) in a Grade 5 at this track. Cannot be taken lightly. CHINESE CHECKERS (3) filled a minor placing last start at this track behind Valteri Boy (18.17) in a Grade 5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Must be included in calculations. MOTOR CITY TRUMP (8) must be included in calculations.

Resuming from a ten weeks spell and worth noting was a fresh up winner last time in, scoring in 25.42 over 450m at Shepparton. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.

Missed the frame latest (30.87) when seventh over 520m at Wentworth Park in a Grade 5. Goes very well from the draw boasting three places from five starts. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 324m in 18.03. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fifth over 324m at this track at Grade 5 level. Has ability and looks a winning hope.
