Ipswich Race 4 - Gibson Architects (Bm58)
CANADIAN FLING (1) gets the nod after a smart first-up win at the Gold Coast, where she overcame an awkward start and finished over the top in a photo. Thompson takes over from the good draw and should give him every chance to make it two on the bounce in the new colours. FLOP SHOT (6) looks the main danger, having been beaten a head at the Sunny Coast before a third at the Gold Coast when bumped at the start and sent out favourite. He is proven around 1700m and looks well placed to rebound. SNUGG (3) backs up quickly after a Dalby fourth and had been held up before placing at this venue two runs ago. Shoulders a fitness edge and can put it all together this time. STEADY ON (5) comes through a country CL1 third after racing keenly and being bumped. Was a tough all the way maiden winner prior. Suspect they push forward from the middle draw and gives his rivals something to catch.

Resumed with a determined win over 1400m at Gold Coast, settling back after jumping awkwardly and still arriving in a photo finish despite starting an outside chance in the betting. Her start prior was a plain last in a BM64 at Kembla Grange, but the fresh return was a clear reset. Barrier one gives her the right platform to win again.

Has the right historical credentials at this venue and trip, but the current form is difficult to recommend strongly. Finished fourth in a BM62 at this track last start, beaten just under five lengths at big odds, after being last at Gold Coast when unwanted in the market. Has to find a clear form lift.

Backs up quickly after finishing fourth in a BM62 at Dalby, beaten just under four lengths after being slow to begin and starting near the top of betting. Her prior third in a BM62 at this venue had merit, with stewards noting she was held up from the 300m before working into the placings. Strong place claims if she begins cleanly.

Comes back on a six-day turnaround after finishing sixth in a Class 1 at this track, beaten four and a half lengths at generous odds. The Doomben run prior in a Class 2 was also only fair, when second last and never a factor after settling well back. He is race fit and his time ratings give him some appeal, but the recent racing pattern leaves him more a place chance than a win play. One for the exotics.

Worked into the race when third in a country Class 1 at Grafton last start, beaten just over two lengths, with stewards noting he raced keenly and was bumped. That followed a Mdn win at Grafton where he led and held off Credibility by a long neck. The 1700m record keeps him more place than win.

Was sent out favourite in a Gold Coast Class 1 and finished third, beaten five and a half lengths, after being bumped at the start and racing close enough before working home evenly. His previous second at Sunshine Coast was stronger, beaten only a head by Kobability after coming from behind. Proven at the trip and a key danger.

Third-up now after finishing seventh in a country Class 1 at Muswellbrook, beaten just over six lengths after settling back and only working home evenly. The Newcastle fourth two runs ago in a BM64 had some merit from generous odds, but this is her first try around 1700m and she is unplaced in two runs this campaign. Capable of improvement, though the setup still asks a bit. Looking to others for the winner.

Was last of five in a Class 2 at this track over 1965m last start, beaten over 11 lengths after being unwanted in the market and failing to come on. The Grafton run prior was only fair, beaten just under eight lengths over 2220m after giving away a big start. Others bring stronger recent form.

First-time blinkers are applied and he does have a previous win at this track and distance, but the latest form is hard to overlook. Finished last at Gold Coast Poly, beaten over 15 lengths at big odds, after losing the rider at Sunshine Coast when tightened and blundering shortly after the start. A sharp turnaround is required.
