GOING: G(3)

BROWNLIE CONCRETORS Class 2 Handicap 1350m

Track: GOOD 3     Rail: True. (Pent: 4.92).  

First Peoples can control the race. A CERTAIN MAYBE (8) is right up to this at best and will be better for the first-up hitout on the Gold Coast poly. Placed in stronger her only second-up outing and Damien Thornton is a positive jockey switch. TOO MUCH MAKEUP (9) didn't do a bad job at Doomben before delivering the 59 at Kilcoy as expected. Has an awkward gate but presents on a quick backup and can go back to back without surprise. BLAME THE WHISKEY (4) has switched from a Victorian yard on a 31-day return. Threatened at Ballarat and Echuca his two most recent starts and they read well. Has an outside barrier and that's the niggle. MAXIE TAP (13) spiked his figures narrowly beaten in a CL3 at the Sunshine Coast. May have been flattered by the heavy surface but his form generally would see him in the finish. Arrives here on the fresh side. SUGGESTED PLAY: A Certain Maybe appeals most.
