Gold Coast Poly Race 3 - The Led Group Robus Mdn Hcp
BALLISTIC STAR (1) looks a handy one on debut for the local yard, with enough pedigree depth to command respect. Hasn't trialled publicly for nearly a year but looked smart when he did. KING OF VALHALLA (2) can rebound from a wide, costly run as beaten favourite at this venue, particularly with his earlier second to Egmont reading well. ENTERPRISE GISELLE (5) returns and looks best of the rest in her stable debut. CAPTAIN BLOOD (8) gets in well after the claim and has to be kept safe from the soft draw.

Debuts for Adam Campton, the top-ranked trainer for wins at this track, and that stable context gives this first starter genuine interest. He was a $95,000 yearling purchase and comes from a family with city-winning siblings, so there is some depth behind him. No trials, but must be respected.

Had genuine excuses when fifth at this track last start, jumping awkwardly and racing wide throughout before weakening as beaten favourite. The run prior was much stronger, finishing second to Egmont at this venue when only run down late. Prior second at this venue reads well and he can bounce back.

Worked home soundly from well back on debut at this track, finishing fourth to She's So Pretty after beginning awkwardly and starting at big odds. He did finish ahead of King Of Valhalla there, which is a useful reference, but he was still beaten five and a half lengths. Second-up improvement is possible, though he has to find sharper acceleration. Looking to others.

Makes his debut with some trial grounding, most recently finishing second at Gold Coast Poly. He was a $600 purchase in June after earlier making $380,000, so the profile is unusual but still light on race evidence. Dan Morgan's debut numbers are modest from the small sample supplied, and this looks a testing starting point unless he brings that trial form to race pressure. Want to see him under race conditions first.

Returns from a lengthy spell after finishing her last campaign with a second and a third at Sunshine Coast on soft ground. She kept finding when second to Golden Eyes over 1600m and her latest trial was a close second at Gold Coast Poly, which points to reasonable readiness. The 1100m record is the query for winning.

Comes through country grade at Lismore and faces a harder meeting after finishing fifth to The Epic Journey, beaten five and a half lengths, when keen and weak late. He had also been fifth at this venue behind Egmont after leading and fading. The claim helps, but he is looking for improvement.

Debuts off a solid second in her latest Gold Coast trial and that gives her a more tangible platform than several of the first starters. She was a $4,750 purchase and comes from a John Wallace yard with Group 1 credentials, although there is no race form yet to measure. Race form is missing, but she has place appeal.

Back after two months on the sidelines following a seventh at Gatton, where he was close enough on the turn but failed to finish off at big odds. His previous run on the poly was much weaker, beaten over 20 lengths. The weight relief and barrier one are positives, but four unplaced tries around 1100m leave him with plenty to overturn. Can't entertain.
