MINTAKA LAD (6) found the line nicely last start to get up for second over 6f at this track. Good record at this journey with four wins and five minor placings from 12 starts and is a key runner. HURTS SO GOOD (5) didn't do a bad job to finish 1.1 lengths away in fourth last start over 6f at this track. That followed a when resuming win at Eagle Farm. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. MAXIMUM VORTEX (1) has good form including a last start win over 5½f at this track when kept coming. Rates strongly this line-up and should be tough to stop again. READY FOR ANYTHING (12) settled well back last time out then found the line strongly to finish 2 lengths away in fourth over 6f at Sunshine Coast. Should prove tough to hold out.
