A few sit handy but there won't be a great deal of early pressure. Open race to close out the card. SLY CORNER (3) knuckled down strongly when finished 1.3 lengths from the winner at Toowoomba. Worth including again. SPILL THE SECRET (7) has been unable to find the winners' circle this campaign. Last start finished eighth over 1615m at Doomben. Look for an improved run here. BURLEIGH MAGIC (13) is stepping out at this circuit for the first time. Last appeared when he finished sixth over 1890m at Toowoomba on April 12. In the mix. ROMAN HEIR (9) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sly Corner on top.
