JONKER FIRST WEANLINGS QTIS Three-Year-Old Maiden Plate 1650m

Track: SOFT 7     Rail: Out 2.5m 600m-275m. Cutaway Applies; True Remainder. (Pent: 4.9).  

Without a great deal of early pace evident Pariah On Fire may find herself in front. MERCHANT FLYER (3) drifted back from wide draw two starts back and made ground along the inside for 7th of 14 in 1350m Mdn at Ipswich. Stepped up to 1690m last start at Ipswich in 3YO Mdn and tried hard when finishing a close second. Looks well-placed and can make his presence felt here. THUNDER SHANGHAI (12) is lightly raced and worked to the line quite well last start for third in 1400m Mdn this track. Up in trip again and looks a genuine chance. WEEKEND ARTIST (7) is worth plenty of consideration coming off two 3rd placings in past two starts in maidens over 1200m on the Gold Coast Poly track. Steps up in distance here and is racing well. PARIAH ON FIRE (10) well beaten in a city maiden last start over 2060m but has to be considered off third placing this track and trip two starts ago when she raced on the pace. HIMEJI (2) is first-up but has had barrier trials to ready him for a return and could be one for multiples. SUGGESTED PLAY: Merchant Flyer to win.
