Race Tip

ARTFUL GIRL (11) wasn't far away last time out, finishing fourth over 1m1f at Sunshine Coast after she got a long way back in the run. The extra journey should play into her hands. Will pay to follow up. SHY GUY (19) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 4 lengths back in seventh over 1m at Eagle Farm. Will take some beating. FLASH PRINCE (22) missed the placings two runs back then didn't feature last start when 8 lengths away in 12th over 1m3f at Sunshine Coast after being in contention on the turn. Goes up a rung or two but he is up to the task. YET HE MOVES (9) proved too strong two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when sixth over 1m3 1/4f at Eagle Farm, beaten 4 lengths. Nicely placed to figure in the finish.
