GOING: G(4)

HQ PROPERTY QTIS Two-Year-Old Handicap 1350m

Track: Soft 5   Clear (Max: 19)   Rail: +1m Entire. (Pent: 5.96)  

Genuine tempo with the speedy Omphalos leading the way. One for the babies. The well-related LOCKYER (1) (full to G2 winner Strasbourg) is another to get the maiden out of the way at the latest outing over this course and distance and gets some weight off from the inside alley. Can make it back-to-back wins without surprising. BANG STICK (2) has been performing consistently up north and looks ready for the step-up in grade here. Capable of testing his rivals. COOL MOON (9) is still a maiden but is yet to put in a poor one and is a must for the multiples. SUMMATION (4) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be slept on. SAVEUR (11) has been thereabouts at both runs this prep. Decent effort last start to finish second over 1350m at Ipswich nine days ago. Ready to peak at the third run in. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 1,2,9,4.
