GOING: S(5)

MORETON HIRE BRISBANE MILE QUALITY Handicap 1600m Track: SOFT 5 Rain (Max: 23) Rail: Out 3m Entire. (Pent: 5.9).
Avenue Of Stars and Russian Warrior will press forward early in a keen battle for top spot. The JIMMYSSTAR (5) bubble burst in the Newcastle Stakes on 8 March when he finished midfield at $1.80. Maher has hit the reset button on the four-year-old who is possibly heading for bigger riches this Winter. Can bounce back. DUNE FORTY FIVE (6) found 1350m at Doomben too sharp first-up. Good miler with plenty of improvement in store. OSCAR ZULU (3) is racing well without winning. Each-way chance at odds. SUGGESTED PLAY: Jimmysstar for the win.
