Race Tip
ANYTHINK GOES (5) showed good early dash last start and held on well to finish a neck back in second over 7½f at Rosehill. Has the class to go one better. REDWOOD SHADOW (12) turned in a nice run when fresh from a lay-off two starts back at Eagle Farm then missed the placings last time when 2.75 lengths from the winner in fifth over 7f at Eagle Farm. Well placed and is among the leading players. LAST CHANCE SALOON (14) built on a nice second two starts back at Sunshine Coast with success over 7f at Eagle Farm two weeks ago, getting home by 1.1 lengths. Michael Rodd scored on him last time and retains the mount. Meeting a deeper field this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. NO GOING BACK (16) is struggling to break through but has been around the mark lately, last start finishing tenth over 1m1f at Eagle Farm. Fair record at this trip with a win and three minor placings. Can measure up.
