Sunshine Coast Race 1 - Barrier Reef Pools Mdn Hcp
The maidens kick us off. DRAGON LINK (2) was well supported at Doomben on debut but didn't measure up on that ocassion. Was then tipped out for time to furnish and has since revved up for this with a dominant trial win. Where there's smoke there'r fire and can run a big race while fresh. KHOIRGIRL (3) is unlucky to still be a maiden hitting the top-four in all three starts to date. Gets 1.5kg off from the favourable draw and can make her presence felt. CERETTI (7) has placed two of three overall and must be respected out of the Gollan yard. Top-three credentials again. DON'TCHA LUV'ER (8) is facing the starter for the first time but has shown ability at the trials and is sure to be well-educated out of the Bruce stable. Keep very safe. VIOLACEOUS (10) best of the rest.

Most recently raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 12 at this track Mdn on December 26 over 1000m, on a slow track; 5 len behind Jimmy's Brother carrying 58.5kg at $5. Before that set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 8 at this track F&M Mdn-Sw on December 14 over 1000m, nose behind Daitanna carrying 58kg at $3.40. Fleet-footed type who is expected to take some catching.

Second-up. First start raced on the pace before fading 7th of 12 at this track Mdn on August 3 over 1000m, slow going 10 len behind Podium Star with 57.5kg at $8. Returned from break 6th of 8 at Kilcoy Mdn-Sw on January 2 over 800m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Street Dazzler with 56.5kg at $8. Rates highly and expected to do much better with that run under her belt.

Filly by Goodfella on debut. Half-sister to four-start maiden Ready Go Billy. Dam was unraced. Won a Eagle Farm trial over 800m on January 6. Looks a winning chance.

Filly by Blue Point facing the starter for the first time. Half-sister to five-start maiden Effleure. Dam was a winner of one race. Was runner-up in a trial at Sunshine Coast Inner Track on January 6 over 1000m. Worth watching for any market confidence.

Lining up for just third start. When well in the market at debut, 7th of 11 at Wodonga Mdn-Sw on November 28 over 1100m, 7 len behind Brenlyn's Legacy carrying 56kg at $2.25. Last start raced on the pace before fading 10th of 12 at Echuca Mdn-Sw on December 31 over 1100m, 10 len behind Coco De Luxe carrying 54kg at $26. This looks even tougher so couldn't possibly entertain.
