Turfway Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Starter Allowance
ZOOMBIE (5) is having his first run since winning by 3.5 lengths five weeks ago over 1207m at this track. Has transferred to the Ralph A Martinez stable over the break. Plenty to like about his prospects. SPOKE (6) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.3 lengths from the winner in second over 1006m at Fairgrounds Turf after being in the firing line on the bend. Going up a level this time but he cannot be overlooked. EMPIRE'S BEST (7) returns from a spell of 11 weeks and did win first-up last time in work over 1609m at Lone Star Park (Dirt). Will be hard to stop. UNWORKABLE (3) was in contention on the bend and finished second last start over 1207m at this track (Synthetic), beaten half a length. Fitter for that run. Placed to advantage and can fill another top-three spot.

Form hard to fault. Returns from a 36-day let-up. Most recently came from midfield and won by 3.5 len at this track February 6 over 1207m defeating Mister Kelly with 54.5kg at $1.69. The run before that won by 1.0 len at this track December 26 over 1207m defeating Neoking carrying 54.5kg at $3.80. Can take this out.

Has won previously first-up and resumes here after a break of 11 weeks. Finished off last campaign won by 1.5 len this track December 27 over 1207m defeating Noble Jon with 54.5kg at $3.13. Previous preparation first-up favourite; to post a big 3 len win. Lone Star Park July 6 2024 over 1609m defeating Hard To Come By carrying 56kg at $1.70. Big chance if he can find the form from last prep.

Comes off a 36 day let-up. At the latest run ran on from midfield; 2nd of 11 at this track on February 6 over 1207m, 3.5 len behind Zoombie with 54.5kg at $5. The run before that raced behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 8 at this track on December 11 over 1106m, 5 len behind Neon Leon with 53.5kg at $22.68. Racing okay but look elsewhere.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 3rd of 9 at this track on February 26 over 1207m, 3.5 len behind Willie Bird with 55kg at $10.53. Before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 8 at this track on February 12 over 1207m, 0.8 len behind Point Liam carrying 54.5kg at $6.73. Genuine hope on best form.
