Zouking, Immortal Storm and Kissavos can set the pace. POWERFUL TUNE (8) cruised to an all-the-way win on debut here at this trip two back in heavy going. Box-seated last start at Port Macquarie over this distance and battled on well to hold third. Promising sprinter who will make his own luck up front and prove hard to run down. HARD JAKKA (1) got going when the race was all over when resuming at Wyong last time out over today's journey. Finds an easier race today and with that race fitness now onside he is a definite contender. ZOUKING (3) led for the judge but couldn't keep going when fresh from a spell over this distance at Wyong recently. Lightly raced four-year-old with tremendous scope for improvement. IMMORTAL STORM (4) started favourite and was too bad to be true at Coffs Harbour last start. Drops 2 kg and is very fit after two runs back so worth another chance. RED SPECTOR (6) returned from a long spell with an encouraging effort over 1250m here last time. Back in trip but still worth considering. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Powerful Tune.
