Ipswich Race 1 - Gordon's Gin Mdn Plate
The well-related FARSET (1) (half to G3 winner and G1-placed Sunsets) is a former NSW galloper having his first run for the new stable but should find this easier than what he faced down south. Has placed one from one over this distance range and gets the services of leading hoop Thompson in the irons. Rates the testing material against this line-up. SPEEDY CROWN (5) just ran into one better over this track and trip on debut before being tipped out for further time to furnish. Can play a role despite the wide draw. FIDARDO (2) returned in good order with a close-up second at the Sunny Coast and will have come on with that run now under the belt. Top-three credentials. YOTEI (12) strips fitter second-up from the break and Melbourne Cup-winning rider Dolan stays on top. In the mix.

Having third race start. When well in the market at debut, led to the turn then faded 7th of 11 in a 2yo Mdn at Sunshine Coast on July 12 over 1200m, slow going 6 len behind Quick Release with 59kg at $4.20. Second-up 3rd of 8 in a 3yo Mdn-Sw at Sunshine Coast on August 2 over 1000m, slow going 1.5 len behind Mynemesis with 58kg at $13. Heading the right way and should be in the finish.

Resuming. Not seen since he finished last of 7 at Gold Coast 2yo Mdn-Sw April 4 over 1200m, soft track; 4.5 len behind Written Aclaim with 58kg at $19. On debut ran last in a small field at this track 2yo Mdn-Sw March 14 over 1200m, soft track; 4.5 len behind Naughty Neil carrying 56kg at $8.50. Will improve on whatever he does in this.

Three-year-old gelding (Trapeze Artist - Adagirl). Half-brother to winner Hard As Brok. Dam was a winner of one race. Will no doubt benefit from the three trials leading into today's debut. Was second in a 1200m barrier trial on August 4 at Deagon. Keep a close eye on betting moves.
