Ryans Cleaning Service

Prize Money: $3,290

BLACK MYTH WAVE (4) has a fair record and proved too classy last time to win by 4 lengths at Wentworth Park in a handy 29.53 beating SCREAMING VIOLET. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Has hit winning form and can measure up again. ZIPPING MARQUEZ (1) is a consistent type who is new to this track. Scored in one of the quickest times on the card (29.70) latest, winning by 5.5 lengths at Wentworth Park in Grade 4/5. Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Makes plenty of appeal if runs up to latest. SCREAMING VIOLET (7) boasts a strong record this journey with seven wins and six minors from 21 tries. In the money last time at Goulburn (19.89) in a NG, finishing a 6 length second. Among the main chances. POCO RICO (2) placed last start and is in the mix again.

Has been in the money the last two runs. Finished second at Goulburn in 19.89 last time but the start prior recorded a swift 29.81 over 520m finishing second at Wentworth Park. Hard to top on the time from two back.
