Expecting Mister Tudor to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sharp trip. MISTER TUDOR (8) scored last start at Gatton this trip to make it three wins from six starts this campaign. Just missed at Ipswich prior and races on speed. Will give backers a great sight. MISHANI EGO (2) resumes and flies fresh. Missed a whisker this track/trip in a 70 when last seen, backed heavily, and has trialled well at the Gold Coast. Gets in well with the 3kg claim and will be right in it. PALEFACE RINGO (5) placed over 100m at the Sunshine Coast first-up and has more to give. May find this a touch short, but he draws low and deserves consideration. THE LUCKY ALIEN (6) was outgraded at Eagle Farm but rates well off the 1L defeat over 800m at Ipswich first up. The gate is tricky, but the 3kg claim is handy. DEFIANT BOOM (3) resumes for a new yard and has trialled well. Has the rail and 2kg claim and has trialled well. Consider. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mister Tudor appeals most.
