GOLD COAST POLY   26 Apr 2025
 
GOING: G

THIRSTY CAMEL BM65 Handicap 2000m

Track: Synthetic     Rail: True.  

Strong tempo with Watermelon, Synergy In Motion and Red Mile going forward ahead of Dance Babe and Gripping. SYNERGY IN MOTION (13) put the writing on the wall with a placing two back then got off the mark at this course last start, cruising home by 5.3 lengths over 1540m. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Can go through his grades now. WATERMELON (5) scored well here two back then met with solid support last start over 2000m at this track when third. Has a wide gate to overcome but handles this surface well so has winning claims. FORUM ONE (8) produced a good effort for third last time out over 2150m at Sunshine Coast Poly, beaten 3 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. That form reads well. Major player. PAPAL MISS (10) turned in a much better effort last time out to score by a nose over 2150m at Sunshine Coast Poly. Could go on with it now. SUGGESTED PLAY: Synergy In Motion to back up the impressive last-start win.
