Pace genuine with Aima Sun booting up to lead. WEEKEND SPIRIT (4) took a while but finally broke his maiden last start over 1650m at Beaudesert after travelling on the speed all the way. Faces a stiffer assignment this time but he should make his own luck up front and give backers a great sight. AIMA SUN (7) just missed in a similar race here two starts ago. Stepped up to 1800m at the Gold Coast last time but after leading for home folded badly. In the right race to bounce back to form. ZOUSAIN GIRL (12) made it two wins from her last four starts when she scrambled home in a Class 1 over 1625m at Toowoomba recently. Hard to leave out in this sort of form. PIERTAGA (10) started at $81.0 but managed to grab second over 1800m at Eagle Farm last start, continuing her upward spiral this prep. Major player against this company. SWITCHBLADE (2) has been struggling a bit but cannot be ruled out on a quick back-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Weekend Spirit to salute.
