THATFEELSBETTER showed good speed to lead here first-up and although he wanted to get off track late under pressure held onto win. Strips fitter and from ideal barrier can win again.

WHY WE DRINK found some trouble at the start at Doomben fresh but still made good ground final stages. He will be better from the outing and can figure.

BLUE JACKET started a short priced favourite at Yeppoon last start and he got the job done despite overracing. Has the speed to be up front for long way.

KISS MY MILLO had perfect sit here last start and liked the way he accelerated bursting clear for what was a soft win in the end. He may go on with it here.

Tip: THATFEELSBETTER

JEWEL FLIGHT was sent out favourite on debut at Doomben and although little one paced late still held minor placing. Better from the race experience and from inside gate she will go close.

THINK GLORY made good late ground when beaten less than 2 lengths first-up at Doomben. Drawn a touch awkwardly but would not leave out of winning chances.

IRON SAINT resumes from a spell. Couple of sound trials leading into this and he was beaten less than 2 lengths on debut. Must respect fresh.

HERTZKA comes into this primed third-up from spell. He has blown his chances in both runs this time in and always been too far back. If he can jump with them he can turn his form around.

Tip: JEWEL FLIGHT

BOOMKO looks ready to find her best form third-up from spell. Started big odds in town last start but raced on speed and only faded final stages. She will be prominent for a long way.

TROPICS resumes. Took a while to get his maiden out of the way but finally got the job done at Gatton before break. If forward enough expect he will be in finish.

HIDDEN SPRING showed good speed to lead here last start and held off all challengers for good strong win first-up. Sure to be better from the outing and he can win again.

DARE TO SHARE was dominant winning here two starts back then went to Sunshine Coast and after racing on the speed faded final stages. He should get the perfect run and can figure.

Tip: BOOMKO

DEVILLAIN started big odds at Doomben last start but she raced up on the speed before tiring final stages. Been racing consistently and will be having something each-way.

VITAL SOURCE did not have much luck at Sunshine Coast last start but when she got her chance she accelerated and put race beyond doubt in a couple of strides. Cannot leave her out.

WEARETENFORTYEIGHT got the job done when favourite at Toowoomba two starts back then was making good late ground here last start. Drawn perfectly and sure to be in the mix.

SUNDUS relished the heavy ground at the Gold Coast last start when gave maiden field a galloping lesson. Chances enhanced if any rain about.

Tip: DEVILLAIN

OUR REBEL is racing in super form this time in winning three of four starts this time in. Last start raced on the speed before winning at Doomben. No reason he cannot win again.

MOTAMAYIZ chased home soundly when placed here last start. If he can hold that form here he will be in the mix again and would not leave out of multiples.

The run of BLACKLOG was better than his finishing position suggests at Doomben last start when he got going late passing a couple. If he can sit a bit closer he can figure in this.

DIVINE ELEVEN was in the market in the Lismore Cup last start and thought he chased home solidly enough. Would not leave him out of place chances.

Tip: OUR REBEL

RED RUBI started this prep with a couple of solid wins at Sunshine Coast then she has not been beaten far in two city runs since. That form good enough for this.

MARRIED TO THE MOB is racing in consistent form since winning her four starts back. Only needs ounce of luck from the corner to be right in the mix.

VAPORIZING started a short favourite at Sunshine Coast last start and he got the job done final stages. Form this prep has been sound and he will be a factor.

BETTER RUSH won two in a row before going to Doomben last start and after showing speed she was overran final stages. Has plenty of speed and will be up front for a long way.

Tip: RED RUBI

MAXCALEMMA finished too well to get the money at Doomben last start. That was maiden company and this a harder task but he can measure up.

SEA ECHO has been mixing his form a touch but he looks to find an easier race here and from ideal barrier draw can see him being a factor.

SMART STAR PRINCE started a short priced favourite at Gold Coast last start and did not let punters down with a dominant win. Drawn perfectly and he can get away with this.

TO LOVE SOMEBODY was making good late ground here last start when beaten less than 2 lengths. If he can sit a touch closer he will make presence felt final stages.
