Zipping Annabel won on debut for Grimwood at The Gardens last month after coming from Victoria. The Mister Twister bitch was then fourth and third, also in the $5000-to-the-winner middle distance events, behind the Jason Mackay-trained Impress Shades.

She has box five for Saturday night's assignment and Grimwood was confident she would challenge.

"We won first-up with her and then she was straight into two races against Jason Mackay's dogs, and they were just too good for her," Grimwood said.

"But she's back into a 5^th grade race on Saturday so the race should suit her.

"We gave her a hit-out on Monday night and she trialled just as well as she did before her first start, so I'm expecting her to run a good race.

"I don't think the box draw worries her too much. She's pretty reliable and run a good first section, so I think she'll put herself into the race. She won from the five box in Victoria and from four here."

The 12-race card starts at 7.11pm.
