DARLING TAKE CARE (8) has been in the placings at both runs this prep, most recently a closing second over 5f at this track. Among the leading chances. PARADING GUS (2) was well fancied last time out but after being prominent at the corner disappointed in finishing fifth over 6f at Sunshine Coast, beaten 3. 5 lengths. This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. SPICY WINGS (1) faced the starter for the first time and finished fourth last start at this track over 5f, beaten 8 lengths. Top-three chance with that run under his belt. MISHANI HERCULES (9) was prominent at the bend and finished second last start over 4f at Kilcoy, beaten 3 lengths. Should take a lot from that hit-out. Likely improver with solid claims.
