Prize Money: $2,655

STAR ZIPPER (8) is a talented type who notched her 9th career success when too good (21.93) at this track last time. Form here at the trip excellent including five wins. The form from her last run stacks up well. Has hit winning form and can measure up again. DUSTY MCGRAW (2) was in the minors when resuming at this track where he finished third (22.39) in a NG. Strike rate this distance strong having won seven of 14 tries. Goes very well from this draw with two wins and two minor placings from five starts. Can measure up. HELLO CHEVY (5) boasts a consistent overall record including six wins from 11 starts, the latest hitting the minor money when second (22.79) over 400m at The Gardens. Has never been out of the money in five starts this distance. Rates a winning chance on best. SILENT MINUTE (7) showed good early speed and won last start. Big chance on that form.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 520m at Wentworth Park. This looks too tough.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a 2.25 lengths second over 400m The Gardens in 22.79. Has claims if at her best.

Comments

Recorded a 0.8 lengths win (22.60) in a Grade 4/5 last time at this track. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Has ability and should be around the money.

Comments

Scored by 4.5 lengths last time (21.93) in a NG over 388m at this track. Has performed well off the draw with a win and two places from four starts. Looks a key chance on best form.
