TIME TO PROPHET (1) raced just off the lead before letting down nicely and scoring a long neck win over this journey at this track last time. Likely to be in the finish again. RUBY CHICKS (2) showed good early speed and raced on the pace when when resuming after a lay-off last start before fading to finish seventh, beaten 2. 5 lengths, over 5f at Townsville. Sure to give a great sight. MACHINE HEAD (7) comes here off a break of four-and-a-half months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 5f at Dalby. Has switched to the Trevor & Peter Rowe stable. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race. GAMADALE NIP (6) is back at the races for the first time since January 17. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 4½f at Innisfail. Sure to make his presence felt.
