Anticipating a strong tempo with plenty of speed engaged. LETMELETGO (3) hadn't been far away prior to finishing 6 lengths adrift in eighth last start over 1200m at Rockhampton. Gets a jockey upgrade in the form of Wiggins in the saddle and deserves another chance against this line-up. PARADE GROUND (6) finished just out of the money two starts back then was beaten 1.2 lengths when fourth in a 1200m contest at Rockhampton two weeks ago. Has the class to take care of this field. BOOMING LAD (7) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten only 0.7 lengths when fourth in an 1100m contest at this track nine days ago after being in the firing line on the turn. Tackling a more suitable race this time so he is perfectly placed to score. OUTBACK ACTION (5) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be slept on. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning towards Letmeletgo.
