Gold Coast Poly Race 2 - The Urban Developer Mdn Plate
DRAGON LINK (4) won a Deagon trial by a mile and then crossed over and led at the Sunshine Coast first-up, beaten 2.5L, heavily bet. Draws the outside gate but can win if things go his way. SHOWN THE DOOR (9) debuts and is ready to go. Won her latest trial on the Gold Coast turf by 2.8L and the in-form Lerena stacks aboard from that. Jumps from an inside gate and finds a winnable race. HILLS OF MINTO (3) was also heavily bet last time finding a place here on the turf. He also needs some luck pushing forward but can keep building. MONEY ON MY MIND (8) raced on the speed last start beaten 2.5 lengths over 1203m at Murwillumbah. Is back in trip but has the inside gate. In the mix.

Fitter and can go one better.

Ben Ahrens trained three-year-old filly lining up for debut. Winner of her most recent trial. Inside barrier will assist chances. A bold run is on the cards.
