BRAIDWOOD PRINCE back from seven week let-up and in strong form with three wins from 12 attempts this campaign, commands respect. SMACKEROONY narrowly beaten at long odds last start at Gatton and racing back at non-metro class on a Saturday, right in this. LEVAR generally strong second-up but ran four lengths back from the winner last start at Gatton on a soft track when fresh, looks threatening. PAPER COWBOY goes well at Gympie and from a good stable, the real danger in the race.

DUBIOUS SIX in the money last start running third at Gladstone, well placed. RAINBOW BEACH a winner at first outing this prep and has won here before, expect to be right up there. DONEGAL BAY back after 13 week break and has trialled since last race 97 days ago, not without each-way claims. LATE NIGHT DEVIL has multiple wins at Gympie and racing back at non-metro class on a Saturday, don't dismiss.

MORT'S HOPE first starter and keep an eye on a Malcolm Bailey trained horse, major contender. SET FOR LIFE has two placings from 10 runs this prep and keep an eye on a Kym Afford trained horse, include in exotics. POWER MAIDEN resumes from a 19 week spell and hasn't been far away in first two races, outside hope. WALLY'S BOY resumes after a spell of 15 weeks and has trialled since last race 105 days ago, capable of getting into the money with a bit of luck.

DRANG A TANG ran four lengths back from the winner last start at Nanango and won once this prep at Toowoomba four runs back, a winning chance. HEAT first-up after 11 week spell and won last start at Bundaberg, should be thereabouts. PRIMARY WITNESS first-up after 25 week spell and made ground late to win last start at Gympie, could upset. I SEE YOU COMING finished midfield last start at Ipswich and racing back at non-metro class on a Saturday, sneaky chance.

VREDEFORT has two placings from four runs this prep and racing back at non-metro class on a Saturday, hard to go past. WAR TOO ALL in strong form with two wins from nine attempts this campaign at metro level and has placed six times at Gympie before, can figure. DASHING HOPE drawn well and won once this prep at Dalby two runs back, a real threat. SHUBMAN back from 17 week spell and from a strong camp, don't dismiss.
