A keen early battle to ensue between This'llbetheone, Shy Guy and Tip Of The Spear from Extraordinaire. THIS'LLBETHEONE (2) was well beaten after leading last start over 1805m in Eagle Farm Bm68 but form before that was solid, including four back when narrowly beaten in this grade at this track. Can bounce back over this distance from barrier one with the claim for Cody Collis. French import EXTRAORDINAIRE (4) covered ground back in the field and never threatened in the straight but held her ground to the line when 13th of 15 in 1400m Eagle Farm Bm75 at her Australian debut. Should find this easier. No surprise to see her prove hard to beat. SHY GUY (7) was unplaced in his return from a spell in a 1350m Bm65 at Doomben on April 17 and should be fitter for this and better suited up to 1666m. Has a Queensland Derby nomination and can give a sight here. PERSEVERE (6) was back and chasing from a long way out last start at this track when 7th over 1350m. Hasn't figured so far this campaign but from a good draw and with a decent weight could improve here and be a place chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: This'llbetheone each-way.
