AAP

On a quick back-up. Ex Rachel Shred. Trained here now. Failed to threaten at Cairns at wide odds. Others with more appeal.

ILB

On a short back up. Odds of $71.00 and well beaten when 9th last time at Cairns. First start for a new trainer. This looks a tough assignment.

Hit and miss profile recently and still winless and defeats stacking up (12 on the bounce); held when ninth of 11 in a handicap at Cairns six days ago; starts out for new yard; others appeal more.

RSIS

Backing up quickly for this race. At 70/1 was nothing special when 9th last start at Cairns. Change in trainer.

Disappointing debut performance at Ewan 26 Sep. Better for that but need to see again.

ILB

At $3.40 below standard effort when 5th last time at Ewan. Happy to overlook that run and was on debut last time. Expect support.

Fifth but beaten only 6l on his debut at Ewan at evens last month; couldn't rule out improvement although wouldn't get too carried away.

RSIS

At 12/5 disappointing run when 5th last time at Ewan. Expected to rebound and was a debutant last start. Worth a lot of thought in this race.

Kicks off second campaign (20-weeks). Failed to stamp himself on the race at Cairns debut 29 May. Better for run. One who can step up this time in. Watch betting.

ILB

First up from a break. Odds of $13.00 and moderate showing when 9th last time at Cairns but having second career run. Might be ridden for luck. Will need to find a few more lengths.

Finished ninth of ten on his debut at Cairns when behind Mean Zipper, Who'syadaddy, and Zig Zag Torque at 12-1 in May; back from an absence here; with the benefit of experience, should not be far away.

RSIS

First run back. At 12/1 mediocre performance when 9th last run at Cairns but was on debut last time. Might have to make up considerable ground. Has a positive draw.

Fresh. Third run now in new stable/region. Finished out the back at Bowen second-up as an outsider. Needs to show more.

Fronting up for second campaign (20-weeks). Not fancied.

ILB

First up after a break. At $51.00 came in 4th last run at Cairns. Needs to improve.

Finished in front of several of these (Cairns) when not beaten that far five months ago; returns from an absence here; others have more pressing claims.

RSIS

First run back today. Odds of 50/1 and came in 4th last time at Cairns.

On a short back-up. Ordinary performance in small field at Bowen over longer assignment. Switching to 900m. Others with greater appeal.

ILB

Backing up quickly for this race. At $15.00 underwhelming when 5th last run at Bowen and dropping in distance.

Not beaten too far when fifth of seven over 6f at Bowen (maiden) a week ago; attempting to get off the mark at the sixth time of asking (fourth her best finish so far); others more persuasive.

RSIS

Backs up quickly. Started at 14/1 and not in contention when 5th last start at Bowen and back to a shorter trip.

Kicks off second campaign (21-weeks). Ex Jay Bellamy in QLD. No impact in early runs but latest trial win Townsville bodes well for return. Outside place prospect at best fresh in this company.

ILB

Back from a break. At $9.00 didn't find the line when 10th last run at Kilcoy. First appearance for a new trainer. Difficult to warm to at present.

Last of ten over 4f at Kilcoy (maiden) in May; has had some time off; first start for new stable; is passed over.

RSIS

Back after a break. Was 8/1 and gave away some ground when 10th last run at Kilcoy. Racing for a new trainer.

Trials (1:0-0-0). Soundly beaten at the trials but might improve under race conditions. Drawn well. Worth keeping safe on debut.

ILB

Michael Mclellan 4yo by Jabali having first race start and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Keep your eye on the market.

First start under rules for this daughter of Jabali; definite chance with signs of encouragement in profile.

RSIS

4yo debutant by Jabali for Michael Mclellan and can save some energy from the draw.

Not disgraced at Gordonvale at $7.50. Drops to shorter trip. Hard to warm to here.

ILB

Started $6.50 and came in 4th last start at Gordonvale and down in distance. Watch for a sign in the market.

Didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Gordonvale (beaten 3½l) over 5½f (maiden) two weeks ago; form lately has been a mixed bag and winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at eight; probably unlikely to trouble the principals.

RSIS

Odds of 11/2 and came in 4th last time at Gordonvale and back to a shorter distance. Keep safe.

Reasonable debut performance when battled to line at Townsville. Experience a positive. Back to shorter trip here. Right in the mix at country level.

ILB

Was $8.50 and looked flat when 8th last run at Townsville but was a debutant last start. Not at all out of this race.

Fair debut effort in Townsville handicap over 5f at 15-2 two weeks ago; first-time blinkers; may be involved now that he knows his job.

RSIS

Odds of 15/2 and looked flat when 8th last start at Townsville but having second career run. Watch for a sign in the market.

Finished well down the track in 3yo Mdn at Townsville last outing. Comes back in trip a touch. Sound claims.

ILB

Odds of $51.00 and looked outclassed when 9th last time at Townsville. Has the necessary speed to mitigate the wide draw. Needs a mighty effort to win this.

Still looking to open his account after four runs; last of nine at Townsville two weeks ago on his debut for this trainer when behind two of these in a handicap; others have more pressing claims.

RSIS

Started 50/1 and looked outclassed when 9th last run at Townsville. Has the necessary pace to overcome the wide draw.

Trials (1:0-0-1). Clearly not up to winner but did enough to place in his Atherton trial. Gets a soft draw. Big watch on debut.

3yo first starter sired by Encryption for trainer Trevor Rowe & Peter Rowe. Betting as a guide.

Related to 6f winner Kingmate; having first race; respected with signs of encouragement in profile.

Encryption 3yo having first race start for Trevor Rowe & Peter Rowe. Watch the betting.

Ex A & T Sweeney in QLD. Raced in back half and never likely at Warwick at second start. All the better, can play a role if things pan out.

Was 16/1 and ran 8th last run at Warwick. Coming to a new trainer.

ILB

Resuming after a spell. Was $81.00 and sub-standard effort when 7th last run at Townsville. Likely to settle back in the field. Can't have on what it has been showing.

Held when seventh beaten 9l over 5f at Townsville (handicap) four months ago.

RSIS

First run back after a break. Odds of 80/1 and clearly outclassed when 7th last start at Townsville. Might be ridden for luck.

Got the wobbles late after leading at Townsville for new trainer. Comes back in trip a touch. Key contender with even breaks.

ILB

Started $4.40 and was well beaten when 6th last time at Townsville. Should be rolling forward early from the wide draw. Not without a chance.

Respectable effort when sixth in a handicap (Townsville) on debut for this trainer 13 days ago.

RSIS

Started 10/3 and didn't find the line when 6th last time at Townsville. Has the pace to overcome the wide draw. Has some claims.

Odds correct as at 10:21 am AEDT. Odds can change.
