RACE 4

I Am Takingthelot is second-up for her preparation, after finishing down the track first up over 1000m at Caloundra two and a half weeks ago. James Orman takes the ride, and she has drawn well in barrier 4. She should be able to hold a midfield position and we expect her to be finishing off well over the 1200m. With natural improvement second-up, she could be competitive in a race like this.

White Ribbon found some trouble at a crucial stage first-up at Ipswich a fortnight ago. She should suit the step up to 1200m, and if she can get a smoother run in transit, we would like to see a forward showing.

Power Flash is second-up for her career after an honest first start over 1000m at Caloundra two and a half weeks ago. She is bred to get over further and should suit getting up in trip here. Ben Thompson takes the ride and if she can find a midfield position with cover, we want to see her be strong through the line.
