Cairns Race 2 - Remax Powerhouse Hcp
WORTHY GEM (1) has the strongest exposed profile, with a win at this track two starts ago in 3-4yo Open grade and a forgivable Townsville fourth last start after being bumped early and held up from the 250m. Gets the key booking of Wiggins and looks the one to beat. FORMAL AFFAIR (4) is the main danger after a sound Bowen second and a prior win at this venue, with Kennedy's record on her adding to the case, though her record around 1250m is the query. BOOMING BELIEF (7) keeps racing honestly, placed at her past two and already placed around this distance, but has to convert. BANK INTEREST (6) is still a maiden, yet his last two beaten margins were narrow and he gets weight relief. Not underestimating. RED LIGHT POWER (5) has been flat in her two runs back but now gets the blinkers on first time to hopefully spark her to life. Keeping safe.

Had excuses when last of four at Townsville last start, beaten two lengths after being bumped at the jump and having difficulty getting clear from the 250m. The start prior he won a 3-4yo Open at this track, beating Minnie Vegas after travelling just off the lead. Proven at the trip and handles soft ground; the one to beat.

Returns from a five-month break after ending last campaign with a plain second last at Townsville, beaten over 12 lengths in a 2yo Open at long odds. His previous fifth in the same grade had more merit after he picked up late, and he is one from one at this track. Track win helps, but his last run before the break was well below this.

Makes his debut with limited public evidence, having no recent trials listed. He was a $5000 Magic Millions yearling and has some family substance, with half-brother Roman Rebel a three-time winner who scored on debut, while Queen Of Ssorts has also won. Some winning blood in the family, but race-day evidence is thin.

Chased soundly when second at Bowen last start, beaten just over a length by Touch Base after being well found in betting. That followed a 3yo Maiden win at this venue over 950m, where she beat Nicco Nota Fighter after driving through late. Trip record is the query, but race fitness and Ben Kennedy keep her right in it.

Has been safely held in two runs this campaign, finishing sixth at Ewan last start in a Benchmark 45 after jumping awkwardly and seventh at Townsville prior when big odds. She does get weight relief and has won at this track, so there is some setup support. Each-way at best.

Went close at Gordonvale last start, finishing third in a 3yo+ Maiden and beaten a length and a half as one of the better-fancied runners. The start prior was similar, fourth at Atherton in a Class B and again beaten a length and a half. Still a maiden trying 1250m for the first time, so place claims look strongest.

Consistent filly who was third as favourite at Townsville last start in a 3yo Maiden, beaten a length and a half after travelling well and looming without quite finishing it off. She had been second there the run prior, beaten just over a length, so the form is honest. Winning strike remains the knock.

Finished last at Gordonvale last start in a 3yo+ Maiden, beaten seven and a half lengths, and that followed a Townsville seventh when beaten just over nine lengths. There was no clear excuse last time, although the apprentice claim gives some relief and blinkers come off. Apprentice claim helps, but others appeal more.
