Cairns Race 2 - Coral Coast Catering Mdn Plate
Two-year-old MONDAY CLOSE (4) made it three minor placings from five starts when he led and looked home only to be nailed near the line over 1200m at Townsville last time out. Big chance to go one better despite taking on older horses. POWER CRUISE (2) improved out of sight last start at the third run of the prep, working home in good style to be beaten just a length over 1400m at Townsville. Draws a nice gate and although coming back in trip he looks a key runner. SPIETH IMPEDIMENT (8) raced handy all the way and held on for third when resuming over 1200m at Oak Park recently. Sure to take a lot from that run and is expected to feature in the finish again. PROPER BENDER (6) just missed the placings at Ingham last start when second-up from a spell. Tougher this time but with further improvement a top three finish is on the cards. ZIG ZAG TORQUE (9) has found one better at her last couple in weaker maidens. One for the exotics.

Third-up today. First-up ran last in a small field at Laura-Qld 2yo+ Mdn-Cl1-Sw on June 27 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Xingxing carrying 54.5kg at $8.

Raced twice to date. At very big odds at debut, ran second last of 10 at Townsville 2yo Mdn on June 16 over 1000m, 12 len behind Vierata with 56kg at $61. Last start ran last in a small field at Townsville 2yo Mdn on June 28 over 1200m, slow going 6 len behind Heart Of Vienna with 56.5kg at $51. Heading the right way and is a chance with winkers on for the first time.
