Prize Money: $3,340

ZIPPING KOSTER (2) filled a minor placing last start at this track behind Starborn (30.42) in a Grade 5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Capable of going well again. PAW VARNA (7) ran a good time (26.11) winning a Grade 5 two back at Warragul but missed the frame latest finishing fourth at this track. Can find the frame this time. DETECTION (4) has a strong record this track and trip including two wins from four starts. Hit the frame latest (19.41) when second at Healesville in a Grade 5. Can hit the frame with the right run. ASTON COSMIC (1) has hardly put a foot wrong of late and will be competitive again.

Found the going tougher last start when third over 410m at Horsham. That followed a win two back in 23.24 beating Blanket Game over 410m at Horsham. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.
