IRRESISTIBLE FORCE (1) is in great form, lifting strongly to score last start over 7f at Cairns to make it two on the bounce. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Likely to feature. ZOUHOPE (3) finished 4 lengths back in sixth over 1m at Townsville last time out after a gutsy win two runs back. Sound record at this distance with two wins and five minor placings from eight runs and is a key runner. MIDNIGHT BOOM (7) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fourth at Atherton over 7f. Likely improver with strong prospects. SPECIALTIE (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 7f at Townsville, beaten 4 lengths into seventh. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
