Sunshine Coast Race 1 - Pfd Mdn Hcp
Tricky race to kick off the card with a few of these facing the starter for the first time. Of the raced brigade MAGIC INVADER (2) resumes here but showed enough when last in work to warrant serious consideration in a race like this. Revved up for this with a recent trial win and gets some weight relief with the 1.5kg claim. Rates the testing material. SNITZSTREAM (9) will strip fitter second-up from the break and is drawn to get all the favours from the inside marble. Looms as the main danger. The well-related FAWUNDERPAR (3) (half to G2 winner Blueberry Hill) has been thereabouts in both starts to date and may earn some minor money again. SAVASTEEL (5) next in line.

Half-brother to Group 2 winner Blueberry Hill. Third race start today. When well in the market at debut, 4th in a small field at this track 3yo Mdn on June 21 over 1000m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Katie Aine carrying 57.5kg at $3.90. Last start 4th of 9 at Gold Coast 3yo Mdn-Sw on July 18 over 1000m, slow going 2 len behind Geitz carrying 58kg at $13. Worth some thought again.

First starter by Hidden Dragon out of Dowinga. Half-sister to five-time winner Strobing. Ran third in Sunshine Coast Inner Track trial over 850m July 21. Hard to have without seeing her do something under race conditions.

Four-year-old mare (Written Tycoon - She's Demanding). Full-sister to winner O'So Demanding. Dam was a winner of two races. Will no doubt benefit from the four trials leading in today's debut. Was second in a Doomben trial over 1000m June 30. Respect any push in betting.

Four-year-old mare (Dracarys - Glamour Rock). Half-sister to four-time winner Atlantic Royal. Dam was a winner of four races. Will no doubt benefit from the five trials leading in today's debut. Was third in a Sunshine Coast Inner Track barrier trial over 1000m on July 21. Trained here and breaks from a low barrier draw so respect any market confidence.

Second-up. First-up after five months sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 9 at Eagle Farm 3yo Mdn-Sw on July 29 over 1000m, 4 len behind Mimi's carrying 56kg at $7.50. Previously second-up ran on from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Eagle Farm Mdn-Sw on January 28 over 1000m, 0.7 len behind Jungle Warrior carrying 55kg at $4.20. Will take a lot from that run and looks tough to beat.
