Sunshine Coast Race 3 - Higgins Coatings Mdn Hcp
THE AVIATOR (5) resumed with a narrow defeat over 1200m at Doomben. Led them up in that and will strip fitter. He won't have to improve much to win. UNDER ARREST (8) resumes gelded and has trialled well at Doomben with race rider Marshall aboard. Placed in an Open 2 at Ipswich two starts back and expect him to have come on and be ready to go. PRECISE TORQUE (9) peaks and has been threatening a win. Races forward and has race fitness and a handy 2kg claim. Gets another chance on an each-way basis. SILVER SPOON (11) resumes and would have claims if produced near best. Has two Doomben trials under the saddle.

Kerry Taplin trained three-year-old gelding lining up for debut. Looked good in a recent trial win. Inside barrier will assist chances. Trained here and should get all the favours from the gate.
