GOING: S(5)

LADBROKES ODDS SURGE QTIS Three-Year-Old Maiden Handicap 1200m

Track: SOFT 5   Rain (Max: 20)   Rail: +2m 900-400; +2.5m 400-W/Post; True Remainder.  

Moderate tempo with Ravenite leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. Former Victorian RAVENITE (2) just ran into a couple better here at his local debut and is sure to have come on with that run now under the belt. Should find this easier than what he faced down south and will be right there when the whips are cracking. RUM RUMBLE (4) has been right there in all three runs since joining the new stable and will be rock-hard fit for this. Looms as the main danger. BADLIFEDECISION (6) is unlucky to still be a maiden finishing runner-up in five of her past seven outings. Has to be included. HERE'S TO POWER (11) has been competing in harder south east QLD contests and will appreciate the drop back in grade here. Can play a role in the outcome. SECRET BOOM (5) best of the rest from the inside alley. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 2,4,6,11.
