Closed off late from the tail at Sunshine Coast. First time synthetic. Can make his presence felt.

ILB

Was $18.00 and made ground when closing off to finish 5th last run at Sunshine Coast. Displays good finishing speed. Archie Mccolm takes a large claim. Place at best.

Admirably consistent; respectable effort in defeat (beaten just over 2l) over 7f here (handicap) 14 days ago; warrants plenty of respect as recent display was promising.

RSIS

Odds of 17/1 and ran on into 5th last time at Sunshine Coast. Possesses good finishing pace. The large claim from Archie Mccolm should help.

Sheer display of grit and determination at Gold Coast Poly. Looms large.

ILB

Was eating up the ground late when winning last time at Gold Coast Poly. Solid claims.

Halted losing run over 7½f at Gold Coast (handicap) when winning by half a length two weeks ago; despite that Gold Coast success, one to tread carefully with.

RSIS

Rocketed home when winning last start at Gold Coast Poly. One of the punters top hopes.

Sound performance in small field at Sunshine Coast over this journey. Profiles well.

ILB

Right up there last run at Sunshine Coast. Racing consistently since returning from a break. Must be considered here.

Produced a string of consistent efforts; not beaten far three weeks ago; was due to run at Ipswich Thursday.

RSIS

Threw down a serious challenge last time at Sunshine Coast. Going well of late. Very tidy performer.

On pace but conceded late at Sunshine Coast. One for multiples.

ILB

Started at $17.00 and couldn't stay in touch when 7th last start at Sunshine Coast. Finishes off strongly. Large claim helps. Do not dismiss.

Wasn't beaten that far when seventh (beaten just under 3l) here over 7f (handicap, just behind Entrusting) two weeks ago; a while since he's been in the winners' enclosure (last win in 2024); this looks a fair heat so may be vulnerable.

RSIS

Was 16/1 and faded away to finish 7th last run at Sunshine Coast. Displays good finishing pace. Large claim helps.

Comments

AAP

No match but kept on for a distant second in the Hcp (C2) at Warwick. New to Sunshine Coast Poly. Hard to warm to.

ILB

Managed to run into 2nd beaten by nearly 4L last start at Warwick. Could be in the mix.

Been running well without managing to get his head in front; ran a solid race finishing runner-up over 7½f at Warwick (handicap) 13 days ago; should go close.

RSIS

Good run when placing 2nd last time at Warwick. Respect the betting.

AAP

Started $15 when safely held in Benchmark 62 company at Ipswich. First time around Sunshine Coast Poly. Best viewed as a rough place hope.

ILB

Backing up quickly. Was $15.00 and disappointing outing when 7th last run at Ipswich. Won't be far away during the run. Most likely not today.

Brings winning C&D form to the table; form has an up and down look to it; held in seventh at Ipswich over 1m½f (handicap) a week ago; this looks a decent race so looks opposable.

RSIS

On a short back up. Was 14/1 and ordinary when 7th last start at Ipswich. Has good tactical pace and will be nicely positioned.

AAP

Ran on okay without troubling at Gold Coast. Building fitness. First time synthetic. Has some claims.

ILB

Odds of $12.00 and pushed past some when 4th last run at Gold Coast and gets a favourable barrier. Should be swooping on the field late. Sound chance.

Fair effort at Gold Coast over 7f (handicap) 20 days ago; hard enough to fancy as regularly been coming up a bit short lately.

RSIS

At 11/1 improved when 4th last time at Gold Coast and will try to take advantage of the stall. Has a great burst of pace late.

Backing up quickly. Long winless run. Settled back and didn't come on at Gatton. Going up in grade.

ILB

Backing up quickly for this race. Started at $9.50 and fairly underwhelming when 7th last run at Gatton and rising in class. Has plenty of early speed. Modest hope.

Was held in seventh at Gatton over 7f (handicap) last Friday; has to be taken seriously based on the pick of his form.

RSIS

On a quick turnaround. Started 17/2 and below expectations when 7th last run at Gatton and racing in stronger company. Will be positive in the run early.

Comments

AAP

Started $41 when safely held in Benchmark 58 company at Toowoomba. Rising in grade. Needs to recapture form.

ILB

Was $41.00 and came in 5th last start at Toowoomba but drawn the rails. Prefers to settle towards the tail. Up against stronger opponents. Carrying less weight this time. Needs a mighty effort to win this.

Has struggled to factor since winning a handicap at Beaudesert in May; found life tough when 5½l back in fifth (Toowoomba) three weeks ago; not hard to turn elsewhere with a few rivals in good form.

RSIS

At 40/1 ran 5th last time at Toowoomba but drawn by the rails. Likely to settle back in the field. Racing against tougher rivals. Gets some weight relief.

Odds correct as at 5:20 am AEDT. Odds can change.
