The Meadows Race 6

Fernando Mick At Stud

Stake: $4,185

ZIPPING KAI (6) was out of the placings last time when fifth at Sandown (29.81) but scored three back at Sandown (29.64). Form here at this distance is sound. Won at her only start from this box. Has ability and can bounce back. QUEST FOR PACE (2) has been a little hard to follow, missing the frame last time but was a Special conditions H winner three starts ago and has drawn 2 where he has four wins. Has the ability and expected to do much better. TOMMY TEQUILA (1) comes here off a placing in swift time (23.28) over 410m at Horsham. Top win latest and can measure up again. ROYAL GYPSY (4) is another with top-three prospects.

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 0.9 lengths second (23.28) over 410m at Horsham and making it two placings on end. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last time despite being beaten. Follow up.

Didn't make the placings last time at Geelong (26.30) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 9 length sixth. Goes very well off the draw boasting four wins and two places from nine starts. Makes strong appeal.

Good effort to win last start by 1.5 lengths over 525m at this track in a handy (30.37), beating Penny's Jade. Has the ability to be in the finish.

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, not far away last start. Right in the mix again.
