Richmond Race 8

Poolwerx Richmond-Kurrajong

Prize Money: $2,515

ZIPPING CHAPLIN (7) was fresh up last time at this track where he finished fourth (22.90) in a Grade 4/5. Has a good record here including eight wins. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings three times from four attempts. Should bounce back. SNEAKY JADE (6) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (22.63) at this track. Is yet to taste defeat in two starts from this draw. Will give a great sight again. BOSTON BANNER (8) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (23.63) last time in a NG at this track. Has a good record here including five wins. His last run is a proven strong form reference. Expected to feature in the finish. GO FORWARD ROCKY (4) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (22.89) over 401m at this track. Awkward draw to overcome. Looking to others.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a 2 length second over 401m this track in 22.63. Unbeaten in two starts from this draw. Key runner.

Missed the frame latest (22.90) when fourth over 401m at this track in a Grade 4/5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Makes strong appeal.
