JIM DAVIES QTIS Three-Year-Old Maiden Handicap 1500m

Track: HEAVY 8     Rail: True.  

Not a great deal of early pace evident. FIRST MAN (1) was beaten 1L at Dalby on debut over 1200m. It was a good effort after settling rearward. Presents fitter and the extra 200m should suit. LADY BOSSA NOVA (8) improved when beaten 1.5L here over this distance. Maps well again and gets another chance. ARGUABLE (4) resumed at Coffs Harbour as a short-priced favourite but didn't finish it off. Must have been showing something and Bayliss takes over from the 3kg apprentice. A much better effort is likely. TOP ROOSTER (3) has been racing in stronger maidens and the Ipswich effort two back stacks up. Jumps from the rail and is worth a look. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to First Man.
