Race Tip
GALACTIC LEGEND (4) hadn't been far away prior to finishing 4.5 lengths adrift in ninth last start over 6f at Sunshine Coast. Nicely placed and capable of far better. BULSARA (3) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fifth, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 5½f at Doomben. Will go forward and is expected to be in the finish. BEACHSIDE BABE (8) finished out of the money two starts back then she was never in contention and was beaten 4.5 lengths when eighth over 6f at Doomben two weeks ago. Ideally placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. FROSTY BEAR (5) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 6f196yards at Bundaberg, beaten 2.75 lengths. Likely improver so plenty to like about his chances.
