A solid tempo on the cards with Lease taking charge. CHAPARRAL CHASE (7) showed early speed to race on the pace last start before fading to finish fifth of nine over 1560m at Mackay when sent out at long odds. His last win came over today's shorter trip and dropping 2kg in weight he looks well placed to return to form. OUR TURN NOW (1) finished second two starts back at Townsville but failed to fire last time out when finishing ninth of 12 at this track over 1200m after having made a poor beginning when jumping from the widest gate. Is yet to miss the placings in two starts over this course and distance and with a 2kg claimer taking over the reins has each-way claims. LIMERO (2) finished second of seven over 1000m at Sunshine Coast last start after coming home well from sixth into the turn. Finds an easier line-up and racing over 400m further is worth considering. LEASE (3) after jumping from a wide draw raced on the speed and fought on well to finish third of 12 at long odds over 1200m at this track last start. In the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Chaparral Chase has each-way claims.
