RACE TWO
SEA HAWKE (7) will take further benefit from his latest run when 2nd up from a spell since returning for his 3YO term. Rolling forward to find the front over the 2040m at Redcliffe he was fighting hard to finish 3m from the winner MONATANA CHIEF. The gate hurts but he is worth a chance in this.
HALF MOON BEACH (1) will be stepping out for just the 2nd time following his career debut at Marburg back on Nov 25. He was well tried in the market on that occasion and after a 1st panel burn faded late behind MONTANA CHIEF. With the race experience he can improve again here.
IFYOUBELIEVE (6) looked to take them all the way here 2 starts back and led everywhere bar the wire to go under a head. This is no harder than that outing and he has claims.
MAJOR SLIP UP (3) has started just twice with both of those runs at Marburg, with the latest a tidy effort after being locked away on the pegs. With further improvement he has podium hopes
