Sunshine Coast   25 Apr 2025
 
GOING: H(8)

TAB Class 2 Handicap 1400m

Track: HEAVY 8   Rain (Max: 23)   Rail: +9m Entire.  

Genuine pace with Sovereign Dane taking up the running ahead of Loose Unit and Lone Force. BECAMO (3) has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when second over 1400m at Sunshine Coast Poly. Great chance to take this out. DESERT LEGEND (16) was too good for a maiden field last start over 1400m at Sunshine Coast Poly, scoring by a long neck. Progressing well so worth following up. LOOSE UNIT (4) is usually thereabouts around this circuit, draws the inside marble and gets 2kg off with the claim. Ticks a few boxes. MIST OF DAWN (13) was beaten 4 lengths into fifth in a 1400m contest at Eagle Farm at her latest appearance. Well placed to bounce back. JUNGLE JET (1) resumes here but should be hitting the line with gusto. SUGGESTED PLAY: Becamo to go one better.
