SELECTIONS: KEAYANG ZIA (1), ISLAND RUBEE (3), LEZAMA (5), MAJESTIC PHILLY (2)
OVERVIEW: KEAYANG ZIA (1) is a lightly-raced mare out of Keayang Yankee, which makes her a half-sister to megastar stablemate Keayang Zahara. And while she isn’t showing signs of being the next Zahara, Zia does find a very suitable race to land her first career win. She ran well for second on debut at Ballarat last Thursday and was fair when fourth at Terang on Sunday, with this set to be her third start in nine days. Her rivals almost have no form to speak of, so she simply must go on top from the good barrier one draw. ISLAND RUBEE (3) is a relatively new acquisition for the Rory Coverdale stable, and while she isn’t setting the world on fire, she hasn’t been far behind KEAYANG ZIA (1) in those two most recent runs. LEZAMA (5) is third-up from a break and did manage third despite a late break last time out, and MAJESTIC PHILLY (2) makes a long-awaited appearance at the races after a stack of trials since joining Fred Spiteri.
