A strong gallop is likely with Botanica and Venturous taking up the running, closely attended by Lukey Blue and Nondisclosure. COOL MUSIC (2) wound up strongly last time out to finish 1.1 lengths adrift in second over 1400m at Sunshine Coast. Goes well at this journey with four wins and four placings from 12 starts and looks a top chance with the 3kg claim. ALIQUAM (10) scored by a neck last start over this journey at Sunshine Coast. Yet to miss the placings from three starts at this trip and is a definite winning hope. TOUCH OF GRACIE (9) was thereabouts last start when fifth over 1300m at Toowoomba after being prominent at the bend. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects. JUNGLE FEVER (6) ran below expectations last time at Sunshine Coast Poly, finishing seventh and beaten 6 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a much better run this time. SUGGESTED PLAY: Cool Music to continue the rich vein of form.
