2026 SUNS CORPORATE HOSPITALITY RATINGS BAND 0 - 58 Handicap 1400m

Track: SOFT5   Rain (Max: 25)   Rail: True Entire Course. (Pent: 4.87)  

Strong tempo to be established by Motorbike, I Stole It and Yeah Copy. YEAH COPY (10) has been about the mark at his last four runs, the pick of them three back when an eye-catching fourth over 1350m at Doomben. Has a poor strike rate but he has drawn well and this isn't strong so happy to have him on top. WHISKY TRAIN (4) settled back in the field and failed to improve when fresh from a spell over this distance at the Sunshine Coast last time out. Has never performed first-up in the past so no alarm bells. Can improve with that run under the belt in an easier race. MOTORBIKE (2) has raced handy and boxed on well to fill minor placings in two 1200m runs since an eight-week let-up. New to this trip but he is lightly raced and has the most upside in this field. SEA OF QI (9) can improve today in a drop in class on recent efforts. SUGGESTED PLAY: Yeah Copy to win.
