Gold Coast Poly Race 5 - Kollosche Community Fund Mdn Plate
DEFIANT CODE (17) gets the nod after a debut sixth at Doomben that carried more merit than the finishing position suggests, only beaten 1.3L after closing off strongly from well back. With that race experience and weight relief, he has the right upside profile for a maiden of this shape. KING OF VALHALLA (1) is the more exposed danger, but his record at 1150m is hard to dismiss, with four placings from four tries and a last-start second at this venue when run down late as favourite. SYMO'S BOY (3) resumed with a sound fifth at the on the course proper, only beaten 1.3L at generous odds, and should take benefit from having that run under the belt.

Found the right race shape to run second at this track last start, beaten a length and a half after being run down late as the well-supported favourite. The start prior at Gold Coast was only fair, with some keenness and a steadying incident, but he is third-up now and has placed in all four tries around 1150m. Wide draw is the query, but the claim helps and he is a major hope.

Makes his race debut with limited public evidence, but the latest trial was a close second at Gold Coast and that gives him some grounding for this first assignment. The stable's debut record is more place-oriented than winning, and there is no race form to lean on, so the market will be important. Draws well and has place claims, though race pressure is still the unknown.

Resumed with a sound fifth at Gold Coast, beaten a length and a half after travelling close enough and working home evenly at generous odds. His previous race run at Murwillumbah was below market expectation as a short odds-on favourite, but he has placed around this distance before and should be fitter second-up. Fitter second-up and has enough upside to threaten.

Has been safely held in both runs this campaign, finishing seventh at Gatton last week when beaten eight lengths after coming under pressure late. The Doomben run prior was no better, beaten seven and a half lengths after leading and fading at big odds. First try around 1150m, but recent form leaves plenty to find.

Makes her debut after a Gold Coast trial third, so there is at least a recent hit-out to work from. She cost $30,000 and is related to winners Silver Thorn and Flashbang, but the stable has only a small sample with first starters and no race form is available to prove the level. Has some family substance, but exposed runners hold stronger claims.

Covered ground throughout on debut at Sunshine Coast and still made late ground for fifth, beaten three and a half lengths after being unwanted in the market. That wide run gives her some excuse, and weight relief helps second-up. Weight relief helps, but the new trip and market profile keep her a risk.

Comes back quickly after a very plain Eagle Farm run, beaten over 19 lengths in mid-week company after weakening from the turn. He had been second at Doomben the run prior at long odds, so there is one recent piece of form that reads better, and today's meeting is easier. The Doomben second two back gives some hope, but he must rebound in a big way.

Recent form has gone the wrong way, with an eighth at Gatton last week following a sixth behind Zoureka at Gold Coast, where Coral had her measure in the same race. Has been unplaced in both tries at the distance and is on another quick back-up. She has work to do.

Returns from a five-week let-up after a first-up sixth at Doomben, beaten four lengths in mid-week company when hampered early, steadied near the 500m and still charging home from well back. His debut fourth came in an Open at Doomben, which reads well for a maiden. Blinkers go on, weight relief helps and his Open debut reads well for this.

Closed off strongly on debut at Doomben, finishing sixth but beaten only a length and a half by Tiny Light after being allowed to find his feet early. There was no obvious excuse, yet the late work was the best part of the run and he now gets weight relief with race experience on his side. Weight relief and race experience make him the one to beat.
