Eagle Farm Race 1 - Mekka Raceday 16 August Mdn Plate
READY FOR ZION (9) resumes off a narrow defeat at Eagle Farm and brings a solid trial. She keeps the handy 2kg claim and will be naturally improved. Maps for the run of the race and on what we've seen will go close. SPANISH TREASURE (1) debuts for the top stable and missed a nose in a recent trial at Doomben. Lang sticks from that and brings a 1.5 kg claim. Looks to have good ability, and the betting will be key. SECRET ROSE (10) resumes off two threatening efforts at the provincials. She has to manage an outside barrier but has trialled in good order and won't have to be much improved to feature. SPECIAL ARTIST (2) was expected to need the outing on debut and did a good job placing from back in the field. Draws better today and with that under the belt deserves consideration.

Two-year-old gelding making debut by Pierata out of Lady Selkirk. Was second in a 1000m trial on June 3 at Doomben. Top barn and the betting will be key.

Last start made ground from midfield; 3rd of 14 at Sunshine Coast 2yo Mdn on June 15 over 1000m, slow going 3 len behind Jaggery with 58kg at $8.

Going okay but needs to find more.

Second-up. First-up after five months raced on the pace before fading second last of 14 at Sunshine Coast 2yo Mdn on June 15 over 1000m, on a slow track; 9 len behind Jaggery carrying 58kg at $10. Previously second-up 5th of 7 at Sunshine Coast 2yo Hcp on January 25 over 1000m, on a slow track; 10 len behind Shaggy carrying 56kg at $8. Unlikely to be competitive.

Resuming today after only having had one start and then had three-and-a-half months break. At debut last start 9th of 11 at Gold Coast 2yo Mdn on March 22 over 1000m, on a slow track; 11 len behind Get Ready Lass carrying 57kg at $41. Had six recent trials to get fit for this. Last trial fourth over 1000m in a Sunshine Coast Inner Track trial on May 27. Might be better off following this run.
