Solid tempo with Factnot Fiction leading from On Merit and Overtern. MODISTE (9) has turned in two solid performances, including first-up this time in when she made good late ground from back in the field for third in an 1100m 3YO Mdn on the Sunshine Coast Poly track. Has a wide draw again but expect her to make presence felt here. CHERBOURG (7) was unplaced in town last start but has each-way appeal going off two minor placings on the Sunshine Coast Poly track at his previous starts. OVERTERN (12) was placed two starts ago then was found to be displaying a slow post-race recovery after failing last start at Toowoomba. Can bounce back here. PASS THE WINE (5) should get every chance from barrier 1 as he looks to build on a last-start third at this track, while ON MERIT (1) showed enough talent last preparation to suggest a bold first-up run is on the cards. SUGGESTED PLAY: Modiste each-way
