ZIPPING CARDI (8) was safely held last time out, finishing sixth at Ballarat over 545m behind Barefoot Zulu (31.43) in a Grade 4/5. Placed at her previous run. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Ready to return to form. JUNGLE FIREBALL (5) last start finished 3rd in a Rank Limit - Grade 5 on March 5 over 460m at this track behind Little Flower beaten 10 lengths (26.49). Among the main chances. ASTON YAMATO (1) ran good time (26.13) when placing two back at this track but missed the frame latest in a Grade 5 at Ballarat. Well placed here and can atone this time. PAW PHARAH (2) is worth including.

Backs up after winning comfortably by 4.5 lengths at this track (22.28) beating Rupee Star in a Grade 5 FIN on March 6 four days ago. Likely to find this a lot tougher and she needs to find another gear.

Didn't finish two back and couldn't make the frame last time when he finished 4th over 410m at Horsham beaten 7 lengths (23.71) behind Lektra Roger in a Grade 5 on March 3. Prefer in something easier.
