Sapphire Coast Race 2 - Tathra Bowlo Hcp (C3)
VEGAS DREAM (3) improving gelding who relished the drop in grade when recording a sharp all-the-way win over this track and trip at latest. Expected to handle the class rise and take catching again. VIS I DO (5) comes out of a decent race after resuming with a gritty third over 1100m at Nowra from the outside gate. Goes just as well second up and gets nice weight relief with the 4kg claim. Maps to get the right run. CAPITAL HEART (4) resumes with an okay fresh record and handles rain affected going. No surprise to see him pull out a big run fresh.FIRE AND GEMSTONE (9) ran well last time and that rating has him in the mix here. Respected.

Useful type. Comes here off a 30-day let-up. Last start won by 1.5 len at this track Bm58 April 4 over 1209m in heavy going defeating Star Bling with 60.5kg at $7. The race before that led to the turn then faded 6th of 9 at Goulburn Cl3 on February 28 over 1200m, 3 len behind Fourcade carrying 57.5kg at $4. Racing well and is among the winning hopes again.
