SACRED BULL (3) is a locally trained gelding who produced a good effort when narrowly defeated last time at this track over 2200m. Expected to go well. HILLCREST AVENUE (5) steps up in trip and is backing up seven days after finishing second at this track. Good effort last start and is capable of taking this out. FORUM ONE (6) is putting together some solid results. Finished third at this track two starts back then got the job done by 1.75 lengths last time out over 2000m at Gold Coast Poly. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. PENDING (11) ran below expectations last start, finishing fifth and beaten 5 lengths at Gold Coast Poly over 2000m. Well placed to atone.
