Cairns Race 2 - Look Sharp Painting & Decorating Pty Ltd Mdn Plate
CHICA PODEROSA (6) resumed and showed good early muster, fighting on well in second over 950m at this track. Was backed off the map, and dropping back in grade from an Open 2, she can take this out. NICCO NOTA FIGHTER (2) raced on debut in the same contest, placing just behind the above. Raced new and is sure to be better for the experience. Has the outside gate today but should be in the finish again. BOOMING BELIEF (5) resumed in the same race but didn't finish it off. Keeps the rail and has the blinkers on for the first time. A better effort is likely. OSTUNI (7) debuts and has switched from a Sunshine Coast yard, where she trialled. Has the blinkers on and a 2kg claim and is worth a betting watch.

Third race start. Promising on debut eased back early on 3rd in a small field at this track 2yo Hcp on December 4 over 950m, slow going 8 len behind Alberta Bound with 57kg at $12. Went for a break before returning 4th of 7 at this track 2yo Mdn-Sw on March 12 over 950m, slow going 4.5 len behind Carlando with 56kg at $8.50. Fitter and is in the mix.

First starter. Two-year-old filly by Winning Rupert out of Classy Hussy purchased for AUD $ 1,250 (Inglis 2026 February (Late) Online Sale). At the most recent trial was out of the placings over 1000m at Sunshine Coast Inner Track February 3. Worth a betting watch.
