Sunshine Coast Race 7 - Bellagrove Estate Mdn Plate
BOLD NOMAD (8) is a Neorealism filly on debut for the Taylor yard. Has trialled up a treat in readiness and appears to have her share of ability. Drawn sticky but gets a key booking in Maloney, who partnered in the most recent trial win. Bright start anticipated. FLARESSENCE (9) brings the strongest race form, having been beaten a nose at Eagle Farm on debut before missing by a neck at Doomben. Drops back from Wednesday racing but could have a race on her hands. POETIC BELLE (12) is another debutante that has shown good signs in her lead-up work. Is drawn cosy on the inside on her home track and can make her presence felt. BOOTS (3) has failed to meet expectations so far but keeps Thompson second-up. Not forgetting.

Led on debut over 1200m at Sunshine Coast and held a narrow margin before being swamped, finishing ninth behind Cyber Boom and beaten four and a half lengths. He did race keenly through the middle stages, so the run was not without learning value, and the drop to 58kg helps. Needs to settle better and finish off with more purpose.

Settled just off the lead when resuming here on soft ground and was ready to challenge before finishing only fair, fifth behind Pierantes and beaten three and a half lengths. His debut in a 2yo Open was a complete forgive on performance, despite being odds-on, but he is now second-up with first-time blinkers and the Kendrick-Thompson combination. Needs to sharpen late, but stable and jockey strength keep him in the mix.

Makes his debut with limited public evidence, though the latest trial was a close second at Beaudesert and suggests he has at least been educated for the task. Olivia Kendal's 1.5kg claim is a small assistance, but there is no race-day benchmark yet. Has some grounding, but race-day proof is still missing.

Was last here behind Cyber Boom over 1200m, beaten over 19 lengths after beginning awkwardly and never making an impression. His debut in a 2yo CG Open at Eagle Farm was also a long-margin defeat at big odds. Blinkers may help, but he has plenty to find.

Debuts with the strongest trial profile in the race, having won both public hit-outs and most recently a comfortable Sunshine Coast Inner Track trial over 850m by 1.69 lengths. Ryan Maloney takes the ride, which adds confidence, and the filly appears forward enough for 1000m. Draw is the query, but she looks ready.

Has twice gone desperately close, beaten a nose at Eagle Farm on debut before chasing Watchman to within a neck over 1110m at Doomben in mid-week grade. Today's assignment is easier than that last start and she has been near the top of betting both times. Back to 1000m is the only real query.

Returns from a six-week freshening after starting a dominant odds-on favourite at Rockhampton and finishing fourth, beaten just over a length after covering ground and racing keenly. Her prior Sunshine Coast second on soft ground was more straightforward, and a solid recent trial here keeps the fitness ticking over. Prior Sunshine Coast second and recent trial keep her in the place picture.

Finished second last here behind Pierantes on soft ground, beaten over 12 lengths, with only a steadied moment around the 600m as minor context. The Kilcoy run prior was also plain, seventh behind Chat Mignon and beaten six lengths after being near the top of an open market. Blinkers need to spark a much better effort.

Starts her career for Stuart Kendrick with a useful grounding, including a Doomben trial second before a Sunshine Coast Inner Track trial where she was seventh but beaten only 2.13 lengths. The $60,000 Capitalist filly draws barrier 1 and comes from a stable that knows this circuit well. Trial profile is sound enough to make her a live chance.

Returns from a three-month break after being second last on debut at Sunshine Coast in a 2yo Maiden over 1200m, beaten over 10 lengths behind Quick Release as a 101 chance. There was no clear excuse in that run, although she has since trialled at the Sunshine Coast Inner Track. Needs to improve.

Returns from a four-month break after a wide, awkward run here when second last behind Gram and beaten over 10 lengths. That was a plain follow-up to a much better debut second in a 2yo Maiden at this track, where she fought on from just off the lead at big odds. Debut second here reads well enough to give her place claims.
