Race comment
OVERVIEW: There’s a theme emerging already tonight. In the first two events we ‘know’ who the best horse is without knowing precisely where they’re at. The same goes here with former Kiwi 4YO ZIGZAGZOO (5). Simply being a young trotter in Andy Gath’s care elevates the esteem we have for this guy but then a quick perusal of his maiden Aussie campaign reveals even more to like. On debut in Vic he started at red figures and bolted home then knocked over Imsettogo in the middle of her regional racing rampage. Frustratingly, ZIGZAGZOO (5) hasn’t trialled for his return but with Andy, that’s normally a good sign rather than the opposite and so he rates on top with market watch a major part of our wagering strategy. After that things get murkier than the Yarra after a storm. GEORGIAS PRIDE (4) is hinting at something this prep so she rates as an obvious threat along with ANYWHERE HUGO (6) who went just as well as well as her in a key form race last time out. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,3,5,7 + 4 RATINGS: 5/ 4/ 6/ 1/ 3/ 8/ 10/ 7/ 9/ 2

Race comment
OVERVIEW: There’s a theme emerging already tonight. In the first two events we ‘know’ who the best horse is without knowing precisely where they’re at. The same goes here with former Kiwi 4YO ZIGZAGZOO (5). Simply being a young trotter in Andy Gath’s care elevates the esteem we have for this guy but then a quick perusal of his maiden Aussie campaign reveals even more to like. On debut in Vic he started at red figures and bolted home then knocked over Imsettogo in the middle of her regional racing rampage. Frustratingly, ZIGZAGZOO (5) hasn’t trialled for his return but with Andy, that’s normally a good sign rather than the opposite and so he rates on top with market watch a major part of our wagering strategy. After that things get murkier than the Yarra after a storm. GEORGIAS PRIDE (4) is hinting at something this prep so she rates as an obvious threat along with ANYWHERE HUGO (6) who went just as well as well as her in a key form race last time out.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: There’s a theme emerging already tonight. In the first two events we ‘know’ who the best horse is without knowing precisely where they’re at. The same goes here with former Kiwi 4YO ZIGZAGZOO (5). Simply being a young trotter in Andy Gath’s care elevates the esteem we have for this guy but then a quick perusal of his maiden Aussie campaign reveals even more to like. On debut in Vic he started at red figures and bolted home then knocked over Imsettogo in the middle of her regional racing rampage. Frustratingly, ZIGZAGZOO (5) hasn’t trialled for his return but with Andy, that’s normally a good sign rather than the opposite and so he rates on top with market watch a major part of our wagering strategy. After that things get murkier than the Yarra after a storm. GEORGIAS PRIDE (4) is hinting at something this prep so she rates as an obvious threat along with ANYWHERE HUGO (6) who went just as well as well as her in a key form race last time out. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,3,5,7 + 4 RATINGS: 5/ 4/ 6/ 1/ 3/ 8/ 10/ 7/ 9/ 2

Simply being a young trotter in Andy Gath’s care elevates the esteem we have for this guy but then a quick perusal of his maiden Aussie campaign reveals even more to like.
