MOOTESSA (5) missed the frame last time when seventh at this track. Prior to that had been in the money on two consecutive occasions. Ms Nikita Beriman stays on and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Leading contender. FREE CARRY (2) had been in top form landing two consecutive wins but last start missed the frame when eighth over 1m at this track. Has a formidable record at this journey with three wins and two placings from six starts and should be hard to stop. FLYING BIRDS (4) was a long way back last start but hit the line well to finish seventh, beaten 7 lengths, over 7f at Sunshine Coast. Outsprinted in the run home but kept coming and the extra ground looks a big plus. Among the chances. PERFECT ENCOUNTER (1) is ready to win after she just missed last time, beaten a long neck into third over 1m at Toowoomba. Likely improver with strong prospects.
