Gold Coast Poly Race 2 - Vale Noel Smith Mdn Plate
WILLIE OR WONG HE (5) has switched from Chris Waller's Sydney stable on a three-week return. Over-raced in the blinkers when well supported over 1900m at Hawkesbury last time, and they come straight off. His Rosehill and Canterbury form prior reads well, and he maps to get every chance. Finds a nice race and can get the job done. Stablemate HOT MISS (8) hasn't had the best of luck at both starts this preparation and will be sharper today. Will enjoy the step up in distance, and her best Victorian form would have her right in the finish. LITTLE LUNCH (9) was much better on the turf here over 1800m at her second start for the new yard. Went well at Gosford three back and is a chance on a quick back up. COOLOUNDRA (4) peaks for the Vandyke yard and comes back 300m. Needs to find more, but that's entirely possible racing on poly for the first time. COME ON MR SNIPS (3) was wide and didn't finish it off over a mile at Beaudesert. Was tracking well prior and consider.

Returns from a 38-day let-up. Last start ran last of 7 at Kilcoy Mdn-Sw on February 18 over 1500m, on a slow track; 8 len behind Wimoweh carrying 56.5kg at $91. The start before that ran last of 10 at Toowoomba Mdn on December 27 over 2000m, 24 len behind Duke Of Bantry with 51kg at $151. Stepping up in distance but still hard to have.
