Cairns Race 7 - Great Northern Brewing Co Cairns Amateur Cup (Bm74)

BLUEBIRD BAY (9) has placed two of three over this staying journey and hasn't been too far off them in recent efforts. Capable enough on his day and should be right there at the business end. ALABAMA MOONLIGHT (6) has placed two of three around this circuit and looks ready for the step-up in trip now. Major player in this line-up. SIGIRIYA ROCK (2) has gotten better with each run this time in work and looks to be working up to another victory. Top-three credentials. HEIR JORDAN (7) has a win and a placing from two attempts over this distance range and can feature despite the sticky alley. BETTA AL (11) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be underestimated.

At the latest run struggled in the run home; 13th of 16 in a Tvlle Cup at Townsville on August 8 over 2000m, 8 len behind Leg Drive with 54kg at $13. The race before that 3rd of 12 in a Hcp at Townsville on August 1 over 1609m, 0.7 len behind Aged Care carrying 55kg at $16. Has some ability and can do much better.

Most recently held ground to the line 2nd of 8 in a Hcp at Innisfail on August 15 over 1800m, 2 len behind Choir Boy with 60kg at $2.30. Before that sat behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 12 in a Hcp at Townsville on August 1 over 1609m, 2.5 len behind Aged Care carrying 54kg at $6.50. Made headway last time. Rates highly and is a top chance.
