RACE COMMENT
Despite coming into this race first up, MYDADSAID (5) was racing stronger opposition last campaign. Unplaced at his last outing in the Consolation of the Qld Sun three start back he held 3rd behind ARODA in the Redcliffe Cup. Opening the pipes at the trials, he can challenge fresh. RACING TIME (11) scored a starchy victory here last start in a qualifier when sitting parked at the mile and fighting them off to claim a 2m margin. Only a head away the start prior in the West Wyalong Cup, he receives no favours from this gate but can look to throw down a challenge. DON ARTHUR (2) has started from the second line at his past three in succession, the latest when he could have been closer with the gaps going his way. The improved gate is a huge help. BETTERTHAN POPSY (1) was content to sit parked last start and fought for the spot when finishing midfield behind MY ULTIMATE CARTER. With the options, he can feature.
