Race Tip

VIBURNUM (4) lifted strongly to score last time with 1.3 lengths to spare over 4¾f at Cairns, making it two on the bounce. Good record at this journey with two wins and two minor placings from five starts and shapes as a key contender. LADY DAMUS (8) is racing well, scoring in a at this track before finishing a neck from the winner in third last time over 6f at this track. Reunites with Ryan Wiggins who has a win when partnering. Should be hard to stop. SHIPS AHOY (3) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a lay-off on February 10 finishing eighth and beaten 4 lengths over 6½f at Toowoomba. Looks a strong top-three prospect. BAKERSFIELD (5) is back after a break of seven months. Looking to emulate his win at Cairns at the beginning of last prep. Makes plenty of appeal.
