Stake: $4,044

TRACEY TARO (2) was quickly out of the boxes with a slick early sectional clocking 24.89 with a 2.25 lengths win at this track over 431m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in her latest win. Well placed and can measure up. MOLLY MISS (3) boasts a strong record this journey with three wins and two minors from seven tries. Missed the frame latest (25.42) when fourth over 431m at this track in a Grade 5. Makes strong appeal on best. ZIPPING VIPER (1) has some solid form under his belt and proved too classy last time to win by 0.8 lengths at The Gardens in a handy 29.91 beating Samson's Riot. Ran the fastest time on the program in his latest win. Expecting another bold showing. ELSA ABOVE (8) can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Good effort to score just six days ago over 515m at The Gardens by 0.8 lengths in a Grade 5. Expected to measure up again.

Scored by 2.25 lengths last time (24.89) in a Grade 5 over 431m at this track. Has one success and four minors from seven starts from box 2. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th in a Grade 5 on May 6 over 431m at this track behind Tracey Taro beaten 7 lengths (25.42). Placed two back at this track. Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up. Expected to be in the finish.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fourth last time out over 515m at The Gardens. This looks too tough.
