Gold Coast Race 5 - 4front Hcp (C4)
NISHIKORI (5) finished an unexplained last two starts back before showing his true worth last time out at Beaudesert, winning by a nose. He is at his best on wet tracks and should give a good account himself. ANGELS SHARE (4) backed up her good trial form with a brilliant come from last win at the Sunshine Coast fresh up. The extra 200 metres on offer today looks ideal and she is well placed to win again. BENGAL BANDIT (1) did not have all favours when beaten as a favourite fresh up and will notice the class drop here. He is a winner of his only start second up and must go close in this. FAST THINKER (6) was in need of his fresh up run and does improve quickly with racing. He has a solid course and distance record and should be thereabouts here. Include in all multiples.

At the latest run slowly away and held up near turn; 2nd in a small field at Beaudesert Plate (C4) on April 25 over 1100m, slow going 2.75 len behind Tudor Music carrying 59kg at $21. The run before that wide early stages; couldn't go on with it; second last of 10 at Doomben E&G (Bm65) on April 13 over 1200m, 6 len behind La Amigo carrying 59kg at $151. Cannot be ruled out.

Second run back. First-up after four months was well back until straightening; raced back then made ground from the turn; won by a head at Sunshine Coast (Bm68) April 17 over 1200m in soft going defeating Maestoso with 54.5kg at $31. Previously second-up began awkwardly and over raced early stages; 9th of 11 at Ipswich F&M (Bm60) on July 23 over 1350m, 4.5 len behind Short Sara carrying 55.5kg at $9. Fitter and a winning hope.

Useful type. Most recently favourite; won by a nose at Beaudesert Hcp (C3) April 30 over 1650m on a rain affected track defeating Happy Candy with 54.5kg at $2.80. Before that poor recovery; sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 10 at Sunshine Coast Hcp (C2) on April 10 over 1600m, on a slow track; 12 len behind Kinkuna carrying 56.5kg at $5. Will not spend a cent from the inside stall. Can win again.
