GOING: G(4)

LADBROKES COMMUNITIES QTIS Three-Year-Old Class 2 Handicap 1300m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 21)   Rail: True. (Pent: 5.01).  

I Eff Oh can lead a solid gallop. BOOMING LAD (3) has switched from an Eagle Farm trainer and has been freshened. He was narrowly beaten at the Sunshine Coast last time and that's good enough. Has to push forward from an awkward gate but Wiggins is booked and that's a decent push for his chances. VIENNAWAITSFORYOU (7) brought strong form to resumption in better company but didn't finish it off. The longer sprint suits as does an inside gate. Another decent winning chance for the Stanley-Taylor linkage. Stablemate I'M BLUEY (5) was quickly back on track narrowly beaten here in a CL3 over 1560m. Sprints today and has been kept on the fresh side. He can't be ruled out. NOBLE HEART (2) is second up and has more to give. He's also in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Booming Lad each way.
