RACE FOUR
YUKO (9) started from gate 1 last start when beaten for early speed but holding on to claim the bronze when 5m in arrears of the winner DELIGHTFUL MAJOR. Not much went her way the start prior from the 2nd line at Penrith and with the right early trail here, can look to arrive for the prize.
BRAEBEACH (2) takes his 1st look at The Creek after his 3 career starts that have returned 2 wins have all been on The Triangle. Firing out to take control last start, he was able to see it out, running home a sharp 27.8 closing panel. This is a rise in class, but he looks progressive enough to challenge.
THE ROCKNROLL KING (1) will make his 1st appearance in Qld off the back of a spell, last seen in March in the South of NZ. Arriving a six-time winner, he returned a tidy preparatory trial and stays under a big watch from this gate.
HOT EMBERS (8) has been in nice touch, hitting the board his past 6 in succession, all at Redcliffe. Placed in just 2 of 8 here on the big oval, he is set for the perfect trip in behind the speed to chime in.
SELECTIONS: YUKO (9), BRAEBEACH (2), THE ROCKNROLL KING (1), HOT EMBERS (8)
SUGGESTED BET: YUKO (9) to win
