CHOIR BOY (5) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten 1.75 lengths, over 1400m at Cairns. Well placed and expected to feature. SIR GRACE (4) has three wins and one placing from four runs this campaign. Scored last start by 1.2 lengths at Mackay over 1560m after being handy all the way. Hard to beat in this suitable race. JOHN JOSEPH (8) defied a lack of market support last start, scoring by a neck over 1609m at this track. Big chance to repeat the feat. BEAU RAIN (6) returned from a spell three weeks ago when he was in contention on the turn before being beaten 1.4 lengths into fourth over 1200m at this track. Fitter so expect a better run this time.
