Race Tip

DUN WITH ROSES (4) finished fifth last start over 6f at Toowoomba after racing on the pace for much of the way. Rates highly and expected to go well. LEMON SUPREME (6) faded right out of it last time over 5½f at Beaudesert after showing good early speed and leading for much of the way, eventually finishing tenth. Will take catching. LIKE SMOKE (12) is a three-start maiden who finished sixth, beaten 3.5 lengths, when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6f at Kilcoy. Chance to break his maiden status with that run under his belt. BALLETTO (13) returns after four months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a sixth over 5f at Sunshine Coast. Has had the benefit of two trials leading into this. Has ability and is worth including.
