Cairns Race 2 - All Construction Approvals Hcp
Tricky. CHICA PODEROSA (3) was spelled off a second-place finish this track/trip behind a dominant winner. Showed enough to say this is winnable, and she will be naturally improved. PERSEFONO (6) resumed here this trip and was only fair to the line. Has the rails gate and Morrison sticks aboard. Strips fitter and can fight out the finish. NICCO NOTA FIGHTER (2) debuts and is up from Townsville, where he trialled. If he's half decent, he'd be a winning chance in a weak line-up. Morrison gets off STABLE INVESTMENT (5), who may resume improved. RED LIGHT POWER (4) resumes, and she's also likely to show more.
