Gold Coast Poly Race 1 - Lawrence & Hanson Burleigh Waters Mdn Plate
MISSION WISE (1) can get off the mark this time, with his Ballina third behind reading well for this 1540m assignment and the distance record showing a placing from his only previous attempt around this trip. Coming back in distance looks manageable in a maiden where few have a stronger exposed platform. OAKFIELD GALAXY (2) looks one of the main dangers despite the long maiden record, as his last-start defeat is softened by racing wide throughout and he has placed at both this track and on synthetic. BEAT THE DRUM (3) is still raw after two unplaced runs, yet he is third-up, gets a 3kg claim and had some excuses last time. MY HOUSE (4) is second-up for a home stable. Chance to improve into the minor money if the new trip draws a better finish out of him. ELEMISS (6) was an eye-catcher two back. Keeping safe for a minor spot.

Stuck on only fairly when fifth over 1900m at this track last start, beaten just over seven lengths by Wasai after holding his spot to the turn. The Ballina third prior was stronger, beaten two and a half lengths by So Sain when near the top of betting, and he has already placed at around this 1540m trip. Last run at 1900m was plain, but this looks a suitable chance to break through.

Had excuses when second last at this track last start, racing wide throughout and finishing beaten over 13 lengths behind Overoptomystic. He was also checked at Ipswich the run before, so the raw margins are not the whole story. Barrier one and synthetic placing give him a genuine chance despite the long maiden record.

Steps to 1540m for the first time after finishing eighth over 1400m at Gold Coast, beaten eight and a half lengths after settling well back and being bumped shortly after the start. His debut seventh was also safely held, but he is lightly raced, reaches his third run this campaign and gets a 3kg apprentice claim. The 1540m is new, but he can improve enough to chase a placing.

Resumed with a second-last finish over 1400m at Gold Coast, beaten just over six lengths after jumping awkwardly and being eased approaching the 1200m. He was also well held at Ipswich the run prior and remains unplaced from four starts, so the winning case is not strong. Still unplaced from four starts, but the stable angle gives him some place appeal.

Led before dropping out to finish last over 1400m at Gold Coast, beaten eight and a half lengths, with stewards noting he raced keenly, was tightened and then held up. He had also finished last at this track the start prior after beginning awkwardly. Has to find a much stronger finish.

Was checked approaching the 1300m before finishing last at Sunshine Coast, beaten over 12 lengths after settling rearward and failing to make ground. The run prior at Gatton was better, finishing fifth and beaten a length and a half despite being held up and having difficulty getting clear late. Long maiden record keeps her to rough place claims.

First-time blinkers and a 3kg claim are the key changes after she finished last at Toowoomba, beaten nine and a half lengths, when unwanted in the market. Her Stanthorpe sixth the start prior was also well beaten, and she is unplaced from her only previous try around this distance. Those additions may help, but recent figures leave her with plenty to turn around. Can't recommend.
