RACE EIGHT
ARTHUR LOWE (9) shoots for the hat-trick after successive wins at the mile, both when charging home along the passing lane to land the loot. Eased back from gate 6 last start to find the spot on the pegs, he stuck to the inside and the short-cuts paid off. With the right early trail, he can swoop again.
RICH VIRGIN (5) might appreciate the slight barrier improvement after landing gate 7 at his past 3 in succession. Snagged back early last start, he was just too far back when trying to launch a claim. That has been the same his past 3 and with the chance to settle closer, he gets his chance to challenge.
FIOKI (3) has been ticking over nicely in similar races, finishing in the money at his past 3 in succession. A Redcliffe winner 2 starts back, he closed nicely last start and won’t be far away again.
INTRANSIT (1) is yet to taste victory in Qld and while he may not be a winning threat in this, from the gate, he can secure the right trip to chime into the exotics. Not far from the in-form FEELINGFORARAINBOW 2 starts back, the gate is the big plus.
SELECTIONS: ARTHUR LOWE (9), RICH VIRGIN (5), FIOKI (3), INTRANSIT (1)
