Ipswich Race 1 - Poco Vino Mdn Plate
AREMKAY (6) comes through stronger maidens where she's held her own without threatening. The rise in trip should suit third-up and she's drawn kindly. Great chance to break through. SHAWNEE BOY (5) was first-up at Kilcoy over a shorter journey despite being near the top of the betting, but blinkers go back on and he sports visors for the first time. Bigger trip suits on the short back-up and he can play a more significant role this time. OAKFIELD GALAXY (4) was a big improver last start on the Poly when chasing gamely into second. With confidence and the 3kg claimer sticking he deserves more respect. CHANCE DE LUNE (2) was better at the Gold Coast last time when firm in the market and is another that can make his presence felt on a short turnaround.

Worked home evenly for second over 1800m at Sunshine Coast last start, beaten just over five lengths after being slow to begin and starting at long odds. His Eagle Farm sixth to Kowloon Magnate two back was only fair, and he did finish behind Aremkay there. The positives are three placings from five tries around this distance and Taylor Marshall back aboard, so he profiles as a minor-money hope rather than a strong winning play. Can play a minor role.

Backs up five days after a sound second over 2230m at Gold Coast, beaten two and a half lengths in a small field after being near the top of betting. The run prior at Sunshine Coast had merit late despite an eight-length margin, but this is his first try around 1965m and he is unplaced from seven starts at this venue. Worth including.

Finished seventh at Toowoomba last start, beaten over 20 lengths after beginning awkwardly and making no impression late. That followed another plain Toowoomba run when tenth and beaten over 12 lengths at long odds. Has to find far more.

Put in a better effort when second at Gold Coast Poly last start, beaten two and a half lengths after jumping awkwardly and being held up near the 500m before fighting on. He had been safely held at Ballina three days earlier, but the quick back-up angle is positive again and the 3kg claim helps. The longer trip is the main question.

Resumed with a plain seventh at Kilcoy over 1500m, beaten seven and a half lengths after settling rearward and being only fair through the line despite market respect. He had earlier worked home fairly over 2200m at Sunshine Coast, and now blinkers and a visor go on for the first time. Capable of sharp improvement into the placings.

Improved nicely second-up when fourth at Eagle Farm over 1800m, beaten just under three lengths after beginning slowly and working into the race from a big price. That mid-week run reads well for this easier meeting, and her debut fifth at this venue had late merit despite another slow start. Draws well, gets a claim and looks the one to beat.

Resumed with a heavy defeat at Armidale, finishing last and beaten over 18 lengths after settling back and fading late. This is a harder meeting than that country assignment, and her previous run was a well-beaten effort in Class 1 grade at Taree on heavy ground when unwanted in the market. Stronger meeting now and recent form is hard to support.

Began awkwardly and raced keenly when last at Sunshine Coast over 2200m, but she was still beaten over 14 lengths at long odds and failed to come into the race. Her previous start was another last placing, beaten nine and a half lengths after missing the start on soft ground. Blinkers come off.

Was never a factor when fifth at Toowoomba last start, beaten over 13 lengths after holding her position to the turn. Two back she was last in a BM62 at Eagle Farm, beaten over 15 lengths after covering ground, so the recent form is thin despite that tougher grade. Others bring stronger claims.
