RACE THREE
THE ROCKNROLL KING (7) comes up with a big question mark next to his name over this trip having never finished in front from 10 attempts at the middle-trip. However, he has been running some strong races in recent starts to give him the benefit of the doubt. Charging home last start when the race was gone to grab 3rd, he was runner-up the start prior when beaten a lip. He is worth the risk.
NO DOUBT (2) had the hoof well and truly on the till and franked that assessment last start when landing a well-deserved breakthrough. Runner-up in 4 of his previous 5 outings, he secured running line cover last start before powering over the top to claim the prize. From the good alley he will throw it down again.
IN CHEVRON WE TRUST (4) ventured to The Triangle 2 starts back and from inside the 2nd line was runner-up to the leader and winner MORESCO. Making the most of gate 1 to lead throughout over the mile here last start, he is in the mix.
VIGOROSO (3) is yet to land a win in Qld but is moving ever closer to changing that statistic. Buried in the run last start, he made good metres late when grabbing the silver and can feature again.
SELECTIONS: THE ROCKNROLL KING (7), NO DOUBT (2), IN CHEVRON WE TRUST (4), VIGOROSO (3)
