GOING: G(4)

QUEENSLAND ELECTRICAL SOLUTIONS Maiden Handicap 1000m

Track: Good 4   Clear (Max: 19)   Rail: +2.5m Entire. (Pent: 5.90)  

Future Soldier or He Da Boss to lead the small field. TURN UP THE MUSIC (1) resumes for the Currie yard and brings a 2.8L trial win at the track. He went close first up here last time and is still shy of his best Victorian form. Jumps from a low gate and looks set for a good campaign. FUTURE SOLDIER (3) has switched from a Victorian stable and will be right in it if presented on song. He usually needs a run, but he brings a sharp trial from Gatton and may be more forward this time around. He races on speed, and the 2kg claim is handy. ENIGMA'S CHOICE (4) debuts and looked sharp in a recent trial here. No surprise to see her race well. HE DA BOSS (2) will be fitter and can get back on track. SUGGESTED PLAY: Turn Up The Music appeals most.
