GOING:

GARRARDS HORSE & HOUND PACE 1660m

Track: GOOD      

PRINCESS ARNA (8) kicked off her first Queensland campaign with three successive wins and she could be ready to find that form again after a fourth as favourite at Redcliffe last time. She is two from two at this circuit and distance and there is no harm in drawing here with the sprint lane to rely upon. ONE CHAIN ROAD (1) has been a model of consistency of late. Recorded back-to-back placings here before a well-deserved victory last time out, scoring by 3.5 metres over 947m at Redcliffe. Should enjoy an economical run from the ace draw. Primary contender. SAN SABA (4) continues to race well and is a chance to break through after placing in her last four outings. LITTLE SURFER GIRL (6) could be close to a win after two successive placings at this venue, the latest a second over further.
