Dalby Race 2 - Ma Mcveigh Ag (Bm55)
DASHING HOPE (12) appeals as the one to beat after two solid BM58 efforts, the latest a third at Sunshine Coast when held up at the 200m before getting into the money at long odds. She has placed five times at around 1000m and has a strong record at this track, so the BM55 set-up gives her a clear winning platform. BOOYA BOY (4) was a beaten favourite first-up at Gold Coast but had excuses after being held up and interfered with, and his 1000m record keeps him right in calculations. ALMOND GOLD (6) brings winning form after beating Troy Boy in a Warwick Mdn, and while he must now transfer that to 1000m in BM55 company, the first-up win gives him momentum. MR EVANS (2) has decent records both here and at the distance.

Finished last in a BM70 at Toowoomba last start, beaten just over nine lengths after settling rearward and offering no real excuse. The run prior was much better, winning an Open at Bedourie by just under two lengths as an odds-on favourite. Last start was plain, but he has the profile to rebound into a place.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing last in an Open at St George, beaten over 15 lengths at generous odds. His fourth at this track in a BM58 two back was more competitive, though still beaten three and a half lengths after jumping awkwardly. The track-and-trip placing record helps a little, but a last-start 15-length defeat is hard to overlook.

Had more merit than sixth reads first-up in a BM58 at Gold Coast, beaten just under two lengths as a well-supported favourite after being held up from the 300m and interfered with late. His previous Gold Coast run in Class 1 grade was plain, but he has one win and one placing from three starts at this distance. Proven at 1000m and down to BM55, he can bounce back strongly.

Returns from a three-month break after ending last campaign with a narrow second in a BM50 at Warra, beaten half a length despite racing wide. She had also covered ground throughout when fifth in a BM60 at Gladstone before that, so there were genuine excuses in both recent runs. Honest enough to be a place player fresh.

Broke through first-up in a Warwick Mdn over 800m, beating Troy Boy by a long neck as a well-supported favourite after sitting handy and fighting on. That was a clear turnaround from his previous Ipswich Mdn failure before the break. The 1000m record asks a question, but he is in the mix.

Finished third in a BM58 at Sunshine Coast last start, beaten three lengths at long odds after being held up near the 200m and getting busy late. Two back she was slow away at Gold Coast and charged home for fourth, beaten three and a half lengths. Excellent track record and looks the one to beat.

Returns from a three-month break after finishing third at Kilcoy, beaten just under a length when working home evenly after beginning awkwardly. The run prior in a BM58 at Casino was less convincing, beaten five and a half lengths after covering ground and failing to quicken. The Casino run before that was plain, so improvement is required.

Worked home from well back when fifth at Gatton last start, beaten three lengths behind Rocky Blonde on soft ground. She had been closer two back at the same venue, fourth and beaten just under a length after beginning slowly and finishing nicely. Still winless this season, so others appeal more.
