JALAPENO POPPER placed last start at Rockhampton and must be respected from this yard, big chance. CAROL RAIN has outstanding form at this track and won all previous races as a favourite, for the wider exotics. NUKA must respect a Steven Scott trained dog and has the speed to overcome an unfavourable draw, consider in exotics. VANILLA SLICE placed last start at Rockhampton and is running at preferred distance, capable of getting into the money with a bit of luck.
