Maitland Race 4

Ladbrokes Bet Ticker 2-4 Win

Stake: $3,421

LOCHINVAR NUGGET (4) looks close to another win after finishing second last time (17.50) at Richmond Straight. Has a good overall strike-rate and looks a key player. SLICK FELIX (2) was safely held last time out, finishing sixth at Wentworth Park over 520m behind Prescot (30.83) in a Grade 5. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from three starts. Key player if finds best. ZIPPER BANK (6) has a strong record this track and trip with four wins and four placings from 10 starts. Placed last time (25.47) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing second and beaten 2.25 lengths. Looks a key chance on best figures. Something for the Multiples: RISE UP NISMO (7)

Fast starter. Last start finished sixth in a Grade 5 on April 17 over 520m at Wentworth Park behind Destroying, beaten 18 lengths (31.30). Can't recommend him in this.

Has shown little speed out of the boxes and drifts back in his races. The latest effort was a 16 length seventh over 400m at The Gardens. Hard to have this time.
