Track: GOOD 4     Rail: True.  

No surprise if the first starters played a key role in the tempo of the race with little speed on paper. HELL TO THE LINE (5) closed off strongly last start to get up for second, beaten one length, over 1680m at Ipswich. Gary Geran stays aboard and although yet to win has been in the money on four occasions. Sure to play a big role. SONIC FLYER (11) is going well with two minor placings from three starts this campaign. Continued the trend last start when runner-up over 1650m at Beaudesert after she was in the firing line all the way. Has the ability to build on that encouraging effort last start. TIGERMOTH (3) produced a solid effort last time when fourth over 1310m at Ballina after he was up on the pace all the way. Won't be bothered by this longer journey and rates among the winning hopes. READY TO DRINK (9) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1300m at Gold Coast, beaten 5 lengths. Fitter now so can figure in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hell To The Line to go one better.

Gelding by Shinzig on debut. Dam was a winner of one race. Trialled on March 24 at Warwick over 800m and finished seventh. Hard to have here barring a strong move in the market given trial form.

Most recently made significant ground from the rear of the field 2nd of 11 at Ipswich Mdn on April 6 over 1680m, 1.0 len behind Kids Inthe Kitchen carrying 60kg at $6.50. Before that ran on from midfield; 2nd of 12 at Toowoomba Mdn-Sw on March 27 over 1625m, long-neck behind Attack Force carrying 57.5kg at $7. Rates highly and should measure up.

Second-up. First-up after 14 months eased back early on 7th of 10 at Gold Coast Mdn on April 10 over 1300m, 5 len behind Ninjask with 55kg at $61. Previously second-up ran last of 7 at Ipswich F&M Mdn-Sw on November 28 2024 over 1350m, 8 len behind Betathaneva carrying 56.5kg at $21. Fitter and looks set to improve sharply.

The run before that eased back early on 5th of 9 at Eagle Farm Mdn-Sw on April 8 over 1400m, 4.5 len behind Kadesky with 55.5kg at $51. Made headway last time. Should be cherry ripe now third-up and looks very hard to beat.
