Race Tip

ZAMPARINI SPIRIT (7) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1. 3 lengths from the winner in second over 1m at Mornington after being in the firing line on the bend. Ideally placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. DR SLUMP (8) turned in a moderate effort on debut last start when fifth at Mornington over 1m, beaten 4 lengths. Worth following up with that first run out of the way. THE ADIGE (5) is a two-start maiden who returned last time and finished fifth at Terang over 6f, beaten 3 lengths. Bold showing expected with added fitness this time. BORN SURVIVOR (1) bounced straight into a handy position from the inside draw before finishing fourth last time out over 1m1/2f at Sale. Has ability and a bold showing is expected.
