GOING: G(4)

BARCALDINE WELDING WORKS / RAILWAY HOTEL Maiden Plate 1000m

Track: GOOD 3     Rail: True.  

Cerared and Queen's Arms possess good early speed and will battle for early honours. BENDOLIRRA (1) has had a decent spell since his last run at Coffs Harbour and is making his North Queensland debut on what is now his home track. He has plenty of speed and has the right draw to take them all of the way in this. A market watch is advised. SHEZAJUKE (11) has also changed stables since her last run at the Gold Coast on their poly track. She won't mind the drop back to 1000 metres and should be right in the finish. Each-way. VERALISE (7) is another who joins a Northern Queensland stable and she has a couple of placings on wet tracks to her credit. It is hard to get a line on her but she is more than capable of picking up a win at short notice around this area. MR MEDIA (4) has thrived since joining the Raymond Frazer yard and his form on the recent picnic circuit has been very good. He can measure up here and has solid each-way claims again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Shezajuke each-way.
