Plenty of first starters engaged which makes it tricky to map, but we can assume a solid tempo. ZIG ZAG TORQUE (11) raced once in the maiden preparation when fifth at Ipswich over 1100m back on April 9 2025. This is an easier assignment and can improve sharply. SENSEI GIRL (8) came home strongly last start to finish second, beaten a nose, over 950m at this track when returning from a break. Leading player again. TIME POWER (5) made progress last time out, finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1100m at Gordonvale after being prominent at the bend. Goes up a rung or two but he is up to the task. I'LLTELLYOUAFTER (7) was out of the money two runs back then just missed the frame last start over 950m at this circuit, beaten 1.75 lengths into fourth. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 11,8,5,7.
