GOING: S(5)

Bowen Industrial Hire QTIS Three-Years-Old Maiden Handicap 1200m

Track: SOFT 5     Rail: True.  

Tricky one to map with a number of debutants but over this trip there is good speed anticipated. DESARAE DOLL (5) has been thereabouts in both starts this preparation and strikes a very winnable contest here. Will be ready to peak now third-up from the spell and rates the one they all have to run down. ASK ME HARRY (3) has hit the frame in both career efforts to date and looks ready for the step-up to the six-furlong journey now. Looms as the main danger. FILLYDELPHIA MISS (7) put in a career-best performance with a close-up third at Townsville last time out and may have turned the corner now. Top-three aspirations. SHE'S A SWEET STAR (6) was a touch disappointing at the latest outing but the two runs prior to start the career were full of merit. Worth another chance. MOONYA LAD (1) is facing the starter for the first time but has shown ability at the trials and any market support must be noted. SUGGESTED PLAY: Desarae Doll to break through.

Three-year-old gelding making debut by Sir Prancealot out of All Day Chardonnay. Dam was a four-start maiden. Was second in a 850m trial on August 13 at Townsville. Worth considering.

Facing the starter for the first time. Three-year-old colt by Power out of Bell Time purchased for AUD $25,000 (Magic Millions 2024 Capricornia Yearling Sale). Half-brother to seven-start maiden Ready To Ring. At the most recent trial finished fifth at Toowoomba over 870m. Unplaced in recent trials and others appear to have his measure.

Lining up for just third start. When well in the market at debut, 3rd in a small field at Yeppoon Mdn-Sw on August 2 over 1000m, 3.5 len behind Mishani Amore carrying 55kg at $2.20. Last start sat on the pace when 3rd of 7 at Rockhampton 3yo Mdn on August 28 over 1050m, on a slow track; 2.5 len behind Borus' Legacy with 58kg at $14. Rates highly and is one of the major players.

First starter by Headwater out of Piacenza. Half-sister to nine-start maiden Pellezzano. Dam was a nine-start maiden. Trialled on June 30 when third at Townsville over 850m. Inside barrier will assist chances. Respect any positive market move.

Most recently got back early 8th of 10 at Townsville 3yo Mdn on September 9 over 1200m, slow going 6 len behind Nordic Invader with 58kg at $14. The start before that came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 9 at Townsville 2yo Mdn-Sw on July 19 over 1200m, slow going 1.5 len behind Whatta Mission with 56kg at $21. Right in the mix.

Third-up today. First-up 7th of 12 at Cairns 3yo Mdn-Sw on August 22 over 950m, 3.5 len behind Tarong carrying 56kg at $31. Second run from a spell sat on the pace when 3rd of 10 at Townsville 3yo Mdn on September 9 over 1200m, on a slow track; 0.8 len behind Nordic Invader with 57kg at $26. Shapes as a key runner.
