The Meadows Race 8 - Home Of The Phoenix
ZIPPING KIRK (1) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, rewarded with a win last time at this track over 525m. Looks the one to beat. REANNA'S PRIDE (5) flew the lids with a sensational early split and hit the frame with a 0.7 lengths second (34.59) over 595m at Sandown. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Bold showing expected. MITZI ROCKS (2) has been out of the placings last couple but impressed when clocking a 34.20 over 595m at Sandown three starts back. Expected to feature on best figures. ZIPPING ANDORA (7) will need to run right up to last start to feature again.

Strong performance after racing just off the speed to win by a nose at this track over 525m (30.57) beating Dad's Surprise in Grade 5 on November 19. Hard to go past again.

Won two starts back at this track over 525m in 30.13. Followed that up with a minor placing over 525m at this track at Grade 4 a week ago. This appears within his reach.

Good effort to win last start by a long neck over 600m at this track in a handy (34.66), beating Paw Manny. Will find this a bit tougher, predicted to struggle on this occasion.
