Sunshine Coast Race 1 - Kawana Dolphins Mdn Hcp
BACETTI (4) has the most appealing recent form after finishing fourth at Doomben, beaten just over a length, following a close third there when near the top of an open market. She has placed at this track, has placed at around the mile and has wet-track placings, so the heavy surface and trip are manageable enough for her to be the runner to beat. POOR OL' JOHNY RAY (3) resumes with a solid body of placing form, including thirds at Moe and Pakenham Synthetic before the break, and a Sunny Coast Inner Track trial second points to readiness. TESTY NIC (6) was checked and tightened when fourth at this track last start, and the apprentice claim gives him a genuine chance to improve into the placings. QUARTZOPOLIS (5) stuck on soundly into second when well supported at Gatton. No easier this time but can fill a minor spot again.

Has finished fourth in both runs this campaign, most recently at Gold Coast when beaten five and a half lengths after tracking the speed and working home evenly. His Warwick run prior was similar, with an awkward start before holding his ground. The mile query is real and stronger profiles appeal.

Returns from a lengthy spell with consistent place form behind him, having finished third at Moe on heavy ground, beaten just under four lengths by Parrot Club after being tightened shortly after the start. He was also third at Pakenham Synthetic four days earlier and has since trialled second at Sunshine Coast Inner Track. Beaten favourite before the break, but still a major hope.

Comes through stronger Doomben form, finishing fourth last start in metro company when beaten just over a length by Ancestral after beginning awkwardly. The run prior was also sound, a close third after being held up on the home turn and racing keenly in the middle stages. Peaking now and looks the one to beat.

Improved sharply when second at Gatton last start, beaten just under four lengths by Mahmoa after beginning awkwardly and racing wide throughout. That gives the effort merit, though he had been well beaten at Eagle Farm prior when swamped after leading to the turn. Place claims.

Had excuses when fourth at this track last start, beaten five and a half lengths after being checked near the 800m and tightened near the 500m before picking up nicely. His Warwick fourth before that was plain enough for an odds-on favourite, but he did begin slowly and cover ground. Apprentice claim helps, but the mile remains the sticking point.

Showed more when fifth at Gatton last week, beaten a length and a half despite being held up around the home turn and again late, but she was unwanted in the market at big odds. Her Kilcoy run before that was poor when last and beaten eight and a half lengths. The weight relief helps, yet an unplaced record from 20 starts leaves her with plenty to find. Looking to others.
