Cairns Race 3 - More From Tote With Ladbrokes Hcp

HOT DIGITY BOOM (4) is in good order and looks well placed after finishing second in a CL6 at Townsville. His previous BM70 third was a nose defeat, so the consistency is strong, and the drop from 61kg to 55kg is a major advantage. ARCTIC BEAR (6) is a genuine danger after a close CL6 second at this venue two back before making ground from too far back at Townsville, with last week's trial keeping him ticking over. TURN BIRD (3) had excuses when fourth over 1000m last week and his nose second two starts ago reads well enough to put him in the winning conversation. SPIRIT MEISTER (1) rises from a picnic win at Atherton, but his outstanding record at this track and distance gives him a solid platform to run well again. IMPARDOO (2) has built nicely into this campaign and should be at his top now on the quick back-up. Worth including.

Comments

Scored strongly at Atherton last start, beating The Extreme Cat by just over two lengths over 1400m after carrying 60.5kg. This is a harder assignment after a picnic win, but his previous Quality run at this venue had some merit given he raced wide without cover. Harder now, but his on-speed style and Masayuki Abe staying aboard keep him in the place mix.

Comments

Went close in a Quality at Gordonvale last start, finishing second to Yes Dream and beaten just over half a length after being sent out favourite. The rise from picnic grade makes this tougher, but he had worked home well at Townsville the run prior after beginning awkwardly and becoming unbalanced. Proven at the trip and close enough for another placing.

Comments

Had excuses when fourth at Townsville last week, jumping awkwardly and being tightened near the 600m before working home, beaten three and a half lengths. He had been beaten only a nose by Northern Pride over 1400m two starts ago at generous odds, which gives his form more depth. Quick back-up suits; genuine place chance with upside.

Brings the strongest recent profile after a Class 6 second at Townsville, beaten just over a length by Colleano on soft ground after working home evenly and being bumped near the 200m. He was also beaten only a nose in a Benchmark 70 two starts ago, so his form is holding up. Proven on wet ground and looks the one to beat.

Picked up nicely after beginning slowly at Townsville last start, finishing fifth to Northern Pride and beaten two lengths in provincial company. His previous run was a stronger guide, beaten a head by Miss Moneypenny in a 3yo+ Class 6 at this venue after settling rearward. Trial since helps; strong place claims.
