AU - Warwick Farm - Race 7

ZOURIPPER (3) overcame a slow start to flash home and just miss in the three-way go last time out over this distance at Wyong. That was his first appearance in 23 weeks so there is plenty of improvement to come. Scored a big win here at this trip last prep so it sets up nicely. Three-year-old BRYANT (4) is on the ascendancy, scoring for the second time in his last three runs over 5 ½f at Randwick in a Midway on 28 February. Goes up sharply in the weights but back in this company while fresh he looks a serious contender. READY TO SHINE (7) copped early interference then worked home fairly at Wyong recently over today's journey. Won a similar race here two back under today's rider Zac Lloyd, who has a 27% strike rate for the Matthew Smith yard. Must be included. CASTLEJOHN (10) scored a tough win on debut last start over 5 ½f here. Big step up today but must be respected. CALL ME GORGEOUS (5) impressed at Newcastle last time out off a long break and is another with definite claims.
