Ipswich Race 6 - Tempus Two Mdn Plate
Tricky, and there will be a stack of scratchings. CIPHERTEXT (8) improved again, beaten a whisker at the Gold Coast on a slow track. She's been freshened briefly and jumps from the inside gate. Peaks and she's ready to win. CANTANKEROUS (1) resumes off a narrow defeat and has trialled well. Missed a whisker at the Sunshine Coast his only fresh outing, and he has a low gate and 3kg claim. Stablemate FAST FUN (9) led and missed a nose at Eagle Farm on debut. She can build on that and should have the early speed to clear the wide gate. MISS DE MEDICI (10) debuts and has trialled well. Maps well, and Stanley rides. A betting watch.

First starter by Brave Smash out of Garter purchased for AUD $ 110,000 (Magic Millions 2023 Gold Coast Yearling Sale). Has a total of two trials prior to his debut today. Unlikely to find enough improvement to trouble these.

Comes here off a 35-day let-up. Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 10 at Gold Coast 3yo Mdn on February 22 over 1015m, slow going neck behind King Spirit with 57.5kg at $6. The start before that raced behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 9 at Sunshine Coast 3yo Hcp on January 25 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Cosmo Centaurus carrying 54kg at $41. Shapes as one of the top chances.
