Sunshine Coast Race 1 - Cheers Mdn Hcp
CONCADOR (6) will be peaking third up, and is meeting a very modest field here. there have already been 2 scratchings to reduce the field size, and with the aid of a 3kg claim, we think he will go close to winning this. FIVE OF US (7) has the best recent exposed form of any in this, and she won't lack fitness. Hard to beat. SHIP HAPPENS (4) stuck to his task gamely when finishing runner-up at Ipswich by a length 9-days ago. He won't have to improve by much to be winning this. FIREY TRUTH (1) had an excuse when finishing on late for sixth at Grafton 18 days ago and his second at Taree was very good. He loses nothing with Nick Heywood picking up the ride, and he should be right in the finish this time. NARUKAMI (2) should be peaking at the right time for this, and he is a must for any top 4 combinations.
