Ipswich Race 1 - Barrier Reef Pools Hcp
The babies kick us off. PRIVATE MAX (7) wasn't too far away at the Sunny Coast when facing the starter for the first time and will have derived a stack of benefit from that race day experience. Gets in well at the weights with the 2kg claim and rates the testing material. EVER SO READY (3) will be at peak fitness for this contest and only needs some luck from the sticky draw to be playing a major role in the finish. ADORA DJON'S (12) showed enough in her initial campaign to warrant serious consideration for a race of this nature. Respect any market push. PAC FAIR (15) has shown ability at the trials and draws favourably in gate two. Should be kept safe.

Jumped at long odds at debut, 4th of 9 at this track 2yo Mdn-Sw on May 4 over 800m, on a slow track; 3 len behind I'lltellyouanytime with 58kg at $41. Will be better for that outing but he might find this a bit tough at only his second start.

Bevan Laming trained two-year-old gelding lining up for first race start. Half-brother to four-start maiden Watch Me Go. Dam was a winner of one race. Won a recent Gold Coast trial. Inside barrier will assist chances. Keep very safe.
