Cairns Race 1 - Holmes Commercial Real Estate Hcp
INSTA WORTHY (4) resumed and demolished the Maidens this track/trip by 3.1L. Had switched from Matt Dunn in NSW and is still shy of his best. Has the inside barrier and the inform Morrison sticks board. He can take the next step. NORDIC INVADER (2) returned from a break this track and trip and won comfortably at 55 level. Wiggins rides today, and he's a hope with the extra fitness. RAFF VADER (6) resumed in the same race and needed the outing. Just missed this track/trip two back, and Cormack is reunited, replacing Wiggins. Quick improvement is likely. NOTTINGTON PRINCE (1) is free running and followed a first-up Maiden win at Townsville with a 2.5L defeat there over 1200m in an Open 3. Has good ability but has to come back 250m on a 9-day return with a number of gear changes.

Second-up. First-up after three months came from midfield and won by 1.4 len at this track Bm55 March 26 over 950m in the wet defeating Rising Ruby with 56.5kg at $12. Previously second-up got back early 2nd in a small field at this track 2&3yo Hcp on November 25 over 950m, 3.5 len behind Satisfied Mugs with 55.5kg at $15. Strips fitter and is one of the leading chances.

Second-up. First-up after three months favourite; ran on from midfield and scored a big 3 len win at this track 3yo Mdn March 26 over 950m in the wet defeating Super Steven with 60kg at $1.70. Previously second-up 2nd in a small field at Grafton Mdn on November 5 over 1000m, 3.5 len behind Prestige Pak carrying 58kg at $1.80. The one to beat based on that latest effort. Found winning form and can go on with it.

Second run back. First-up after five months eased back early on 7th of 9 at this track Bm55 on March 26 over 950m, on heavy track; 4 len behind Nordic Invader carrying 56.5kg at $7.50. Previously second-up 9th of 11 at Townsville 3yo Hcp on August 2 over 1000m, on a slow track; 9 len behind Vegameister carrying 56.5kg at $81. Rates well and can do much better this time.
