Prize Money: $10,500

EL REY (2) could manage only sixth over 520m at Wentworth Park last time when gave a start and was beaten 6 lengths in a Grade 5 (30.21). Likely to enjoy the staying trip for the first time. Was a winner at his only start from this draw. Can discover winning form. ZIPPING ARIEL (4) missed the frame latest when fifth at Wentworth Park (30.29) but scored five back at Q Parklands (29.92). Some good form is emerging from her last run. One of the better hopes. MAJOR FLIRT (1) was an impressive winner last time in quickest of the meeting when scoring by 5 lengths (29.38) at this track. Looks suited and is one of the contenders. ZIPPING MOONEY (7) can run a bold race on best form.

Good effort to win last start by 1.5 lengths over 515m at this track in a handy (29.58), beating Ritza Kris. Will find this a bit tougher, not up to this.

Was out of placings last time (30.29) at Wentworth Park in a NG, finishing fifth and beaten 13 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Looks well placed and should feature.

Recorded a 4 length win (22.56) in a Grade 3/4 last time at this track. Goes very well from the draw boasting three victories and three places from 12 starts. Has ability and should be around the money.

Strong performance after tracking the speed to win by 0.8 lengths at this track over 515m (29.76) beating Hey Mickey in Mix 1/2/3 on January 31. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.
