Expecting a strong tempo over this journey.
TIGER SHARK (1) ended her last prep with a second-place finish in the Listed Goldmarket at the Gold Coast in January. She is resuming at an easier level, and despite usually needing her first run back from a spell, she is more than capable of taking this out fresh up. MAXIMUM OUTPUT (6) is a handy locally trained gelding resuming from a spell with a recent trial under his belt. He has been off the track for just over a year, but gets in here with only 51kg on his back after a claim. Use any market moves as your best guide. SITUATION ROOM (2) only peaked on his run late when finishing seventh fresh up in a stronger field at Eagle Farm 7 weeks ago. He drops down in class and is expected to improve quickly, especially with the advantage of the pole position. Each way value. NATIONAL CHOICE (3) ended his last prep with a win here during the spring to remain unbeaten in 2 starts on this track. He is resuming after over a year off the track, and the market will be your best guide. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tiger Shark to win.
