GOLD COAST POLY   16 May 2026
 
GOING: G

GOLD COAST FAMILY ROOMS Maiden Plate 1150m

Track: SYNTHETIC     Rail: True.  

Genuine tempo with Hurkle Durkle leading the way. MILITARY LEGEND (10) first up from a spell of 11 weeks and having her first run on a synthetic track for a new stable. Last appeared fresh when fourth at Randwick Kensington over 1000m. Can launch this prep with a win. LILSISTERDON'TCHA (9) returns after four-and-a-half months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a seventh over 1200m at Beaudesert. No surprise if she was able to get off the mark. SIKKA (12) has started twice, running a good second on debut then finishing sixth, beaten 4.5 lengths, last time over 1100m at Toowoomba. The blinkers go on. Debut run was encouraging enough so she is worth another chance. ENCHAANTED (6) raced once in the maiden preparation when sixth at Gold Coast over 1000m back on December 27. Improver who can feature in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Military Legend.
