Sandown Park Race 5 - Happy Birthday Tim
ZIPPING MINAJ (2) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame from Box 7 last run (29.67) at this track. Has won two of five starts from this draw. Deserves serious consideration. FERGUS ZULU (1) broke a string of placings finishing in the money two on end before a last start fourth (30.40) at The Meadows. Form at the trip sound including two wins. Has never been out of the placings from two starts out of this box. Has ability and is one of the better chances. KIWI JAY (6) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by 0.8 lengths at The Meadows in a handy 30.06 beating Where's Poppy. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of that last-start win. SILKY SAUCE (8) was in the money last start here at this trip - likely to feature again.

Didn't make the placings last time at The Meadows (30.40) in a Mix 3/4, finishing a 5.5 lengths fourth. Placed at all two starts from this draw. Looks suited and should go close.

Showed good improvement when second behind Paw Oswald at this track last start over 515m (29.67). Gets back so might need a bit of luck.

Eye-catching performance tracking the speed and going on to score by a 0.8 lengths in a Mix 3/4 last start at The Meadows, clocking a slick 30.06 over the 525m trip. Can measure up again if runs up to that effort.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (29.76) over 515m at this track. Drawn wide. Cannot be ruled out.
