RACE SEVEN
DOOLITTLE DANDY (4) is honing in another victory after finishing the runner-up at his past 2 starts. Eased to find position from gate 5 over the sprint trip here 2 starts back, he closed in good order when 2m in arrears. Striking some traffic last start, he looks to have found the right conditions here.
SHADYS DELIGHT (6) was able to sneak into the pocket trail at AP last start from gate 3 which made all the difference once the passing lane arrived. Darting through along the lane in the stretch, he arrived in time to claim a half-neck victory. The wide gate hurts here, but he can look to build off it.
MUCHO GUAPA (3) resumes from a spell to start her 4YO term after being put away back in July when not too far away over the AP mile. This is a big drop on what she had been meeting and with a tidy trial to prepare, stays under watch.
HAVING THE FAITH (8) will be 1st up in Qld for Terry Hancock, with the 4YO arriving a two-time winner in 19 outings. A beaten fav last start at Penrith, with the right run in transit he can feature.
