Verdict

ZARLINI (5) scored last start by 5.5 metres in a far better performance at this track over 1 ³/16m. Her recent effort is good enough to win a race of this calibre. FLYING BIRD (7) finished third last start, beaten 11 metres at this track over 1 ³/16m. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. TAKE THE MIKI (9) could only manage tenth when resuming over 1 7/16m at Mt Harding last start. Worth another chance. BETTER BE QUICK (4) is worth some thought despite her last-start seventh over 1 7/16m at Mt Harding on March 22.
