Doomben Race 6 - Xxxx Gold Hcp (C5)
HELL TO PAY (1) has been improving with racing this campaign and that culminated with a narrow Eagle Farm victory last time out. Winning rider McMurray stays on top and again gets the benefit of his 2kg claim. Should be right there when the judge calls a halt. CHO OYU (3) has a handy record over this distance range with two wins and a second from four attempts and goes well while fresh. Can run a race first-up. ACAPPELLA SUN (7) will be rock-hard fit for this and gets in well at the weights with the 3kg claim. Top-three contender on best figures. STREAK OF WINNING (6) will find this easier than recent Saturday outings and looks one for the multiples. The well-related YENDY (10) (half to 2xG3 winner and 2xG2 placed Chica Fuerte) best of the rest.

Most recently favourite; won by a nose at Eagle Farm Bm70 February 18 over 1400m defeating Influential carrying 59kg at $2.80. The start before that 2nd in a small field at Eagle Farm Cl3-Sw on February 4 over 1400m, 2 len behind Moravia with 58.5kg at $5. No reason why he cannot salute again.
