Prize Money: $2,335

ZIPPER SURPRISE (1) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (22.64) at this track. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. Key chance in this line up. BLUE FRECKLE (8) is worth forgiving last start after finishing sixth (23.86) in a Grade 5 at The Gardens over 400m. Warrants plenty of respect. PITMAN RINGO (2) doesn't have the best strike-rate but recent form is sound. Finished second (23.34) at The Gardens last time making it three minors on end. Winning chance. HANDS ON TINA (5) is a last-start placegetter who is in the mix again.

Won two starts back over 300m at Taree Super Track. Last start she finished 2nd over 388m at this track beaten 2 lengths (22.64) behind Bigbad Esme in a Grade 5 on June 2. Draw likely to suit. The form from last run stacks up well. Hard to beat.

Has finished sixth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 5 lengths behind Hello Pretzel over 388m. Hard to recommend this time.

Got back last start and could only manage second but before that won comfortably by 7 lengths at this track (22.38) beating Bigbad Eden in a Maiden on May 26. Holds top-three claims.

Last start finished 6th in a Grade 5 on June 13 over 400m at The Gardens behind Hello Peck beaten 18 lengths (23.86). Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.
