Gold Coast Poly Race 7 - Silks Under The Stars 22 May (Bm65)

Competitive. AIMA SUN (8) was outgraded in a rich feature at Rockhampton last time but went back-to-back here prior and winning by spaces. He can skip over and control the race and get back on track. MR BUBBALUSKI (2) jumped a $3.4F and led over 1400m at the Sunshine Coast, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in second. Draws low and won his only start on this surface. He can go one better. EFFIE'S JOY (9) has won this course and distance and went close here on the turf last time. Will get a soft run from the rails barrier and should be right in it. BIT OF GRUNT (3) has been racing well at the Sunshine Coast from cruel barriers. Finally has a handy gate and Thornton goes aboard. He's a decent chance to bounce. PRESSALONG (5) has been going well at country level in NSW and will be around the mark.

Second-up. First-up after three months eased back early on 6th of 8 at this track Bm70 on March 28 over 1150m, 12 len behind Tarps with 53kg at $41. Previously second-up 3rd of 9 at this track Bm65 on October 8 over 1200m, 3 len behind Hulkamania with 53.5kg at $101. No easier this time and is likely to struggle.

Last start sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 13 at Rockhampton Cap Class 3&4yo on April 12 over 1300m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Kohler Kid carrying 55.5kg at $16.
