Richmond Straight Race 4

More From Tote With Ladbrokes

Prize Money: $2,335

ZIPPING PALMER (8) recorded a nose win (17.41) in a Grade 5 last time at this track. Rates on top and should go close. BAD BOY BANJO (3) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (20.26) last time in a Grade 5 at Gunnedah. Solid record here winning four races. Better than last start and can bounce back. CURIOUS TEARS (4) missed the hat-trick last start when seventh and beaten 11 lengths (18.94) last time at Richmond. Has performed well from this box with a win and two minor placings to her name from six starts. Leading chance. ADDISON BANNER (1) is one to consider despite coming off a brief layoff.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.69) in a Grade 5, finishing a 6 length seventh. Placed at all two starts from this draw. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won by 2 lengths at Richmond (18.56) beating Canya Bonfire in a Grade 5 on September 16. Has claims on best form.
